<p>[QUOTE="dman, post: 450392, member: 15645"]I guess the question always comes down to why you are collecting. If you're collecting them because you like the way they look, sounds perfectly fine to me. If you're collecting them for value, from my experience, it seems like bronze medals tend to appreciate much less. But if you love the designs, go for it. If they do go up in value, great, if they don't, well you'll have only spent $150 or so for the set, instead of $20,000 or so for the golds. </p><p> </p><p>Speaking as someone who just started collecting the first spouse golds, and from what I've heard from jaceravone, I think he'll agree <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />, buying them is basically just crazy.
