<p>[QUOTE=&quot;doug444, post: 1915324, member: 38849&quot;]1.&nbsp; I would not consider the U.S. Mint or other world mints to be coin dealers in ANY sense of the word.&nbsp; They are coin sellers, offering a narrow range of products of dubious future value.&nbsp; They are opportunists, cashing in, attracting stackers who want something &quot;higher class&quot; than junk silver and everyday eagles.</p><p>2. They are not selling rarities.&nbsp; They are selling low-mintage coins (and concoctions), hoping you will make the mental connection that low mintage = rarities and/or investment grade material.</p><p>3. The vast majority of their crap will end up, down the line (like 1960s-1980s proof sets), sold at a loss for bullion, with all those slabs resting comfortably down at the local landfill.&nbsp; Good luck.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
