[QUOTE="bhp3rd, post: 838441, member: 16510"]We will of course see a decline in or for several years simply because of the state quarters. Where is good there is always some bad and vice-versa. It was bound to happen. State quarter rolls and boxes will be boat anchors and door stops for a time and that time may last 5 to 10 years. There were so many sold and saved that there will be no, I repeat no added value on many tons of these, there's too many. Already we see moms and pops bringing them in and you all don't believe me when I say it but say I will it again. The going price for bulk rolls 95% of the time is $9.50 each. Dealers tell me they will be, and already are telling people they will charge that .50 cents a roll to haul them to the bank. Folks there's too many! Just as this happens though other will drift in drift out and some will stay many will run - it's always been the truth has it not? People love history and many new people will work thier way into truly rare coins. That is nothing after 1953 97% of the time except for die varieties and grade rarities that is a rare coin. The coins that are beautiful and classic and key dates will always be in demand - it's supply and demand and it really is very simple. The very reason these will be valued is the same reason all this modern mint mass produced stuff won't be, again supply and demand. This morning I still heard another person say something about the 1996-W dime bless his/her heart. I like the coin but again there's too many, way too many!
