<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 8240025, member: 19463&quot;]These sold for $100 in 1915 and you put it away in your sock drawer for these last 107 years (unless I miscalculated) the investment would have to have returned about 7% compounded continuously to yield $180k.&nbsp; They were sold originally for double face value (as were most commemoratives).&nbsp; Of course, that number would be reduced by the cost of slabbing.&nbsp; However, finding any investment over these times that paid 7% Another way of looking at is might be $50 was about the average income for a man for a month.&nbsp; Women?&nbsp; You don&#039;t want to know that number.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I wonder what ancient coin you could buy for $100 in 1915?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
