[QUOTE="woodyhenderson, post: 1432588, member: 33122"]I think this will be short lived and have no instrest in them. But it is collecting and there are those that like them so its still a great thing for the ones that want them to collect. Modern coins do not turn me on as they come with a history i have been a part of and carry little value to me as they are made of a cheap clad metal. Iam more of a silver annd copper guy. A metal that has value and has a long path of where our coins were started. I do understand that because of the loss of value of our dollar it would be impossible to mint coins from these metals as the content would be more than the value of coins worth. Being a collector and i do get some coins from metal detecting its really dishearting to find pennys of today eaten almost up or other coins like a quater that has lost the surface metal and looks like a big penny. But maybe by what i just wrote would be a better reason to collect these coins because many will be lost or even ruined unlike the older silver and copper that the earth dosent effect .[/QUOTE]
