<p>[QUOTE=&quot;panzerman, post: 3962681, member: 77704&quot;]I do not think precious metal prices have anything to do with price trends, that is rare/ high quality collector coins. Mass produced modern proof/ mint sets in gold/ silver are definately effected by metal prices. So, are collector AV/AR coins in lesser quality (Fine-VF), and of course modern restrikes. But, take a common France 1812-A 20 Francs / in MS-66=$6000&nbsp; VF=$400. I won a Papal States AV Fiorino Di Camera (Pope Alexander VI) in MS quality Sincona Auction last year for 4500 SWfrcs/ same coin had 3 previous auctions tags. In 1936 Berlin Auction it fetched 25RM=$5/in 1955 in US action it got $175/ in 1997 it went for 700 Swfrcs/ 2018 it went for 4500! The only coins that have stagnated are US/ because these where vastly overpriced in 2005 and are now stabilizing. The high quality market will keep on. not enough supply for huge demand.</p><p>John</p><p><br /></p><p>PS: This coin was 9K Swiss Francs in 2005 Tkalec Auction Coin was perfect FDC quality/ a lesser EF ex. sold recently for 25K US FDC one probably would go 60+K[ATTACH=full]1043683[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1043684[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
