<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 623470, member: 15199&quot;]I agree with Physics-fan about the softening. I am also starting to feel that collectors over the last few years, well especially since the state quarters, new lincolns, gold buffaloes, etc., are starting to gravitate more towards the modern stuff. When the first ASE came out, I bought a roll as I liked the W/L design, and then later for bullion, but I never entertained the idea that one might consider them a collector&#039;s item. There is just so much money that total collectors have to spend, and if they can get many items at near face value, why not collect that. Collecting is a brain function. If you have it you will collect <u><i><b>something</b></i></u>. Bathroom tokens, poker chips, insects, old science equipment, buttons, coins from change, etc. Your drive may only be satisfied currently by MS grade, rainbow Morgans, but if economy gets so bad that you can&#039;t, you will find something else to collect that is less expensive. One friend collects the stickers off of fruit. Can&#039;t get much less expensive than that.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
