<p>[QUOTE="JBlade00, post: 1461758, member: 37468"]Agreed, I never meant for this discussion to be founded on the normal "Buy and sell" mentality of some coin "investors". I was more talking about typical value growth over the mid to long term for high value / extremely rare coins. There are quite a few coins that exhibit patterns of growth over long periods of time. However, I also agree that sometimes it's the specific coin or a coin in a specific condition that becomes more valuable over time and that we can't necessarily "guess" which coin(s) that might be. Right now, there aren't a ton of safe / high ROI investments. It's typically high risk / high reward. I think the only thing that's turning around right now is Real Estate. There is always inflation value which skews everything anyways, but coins value has typically risen for older coins. Mainly because they don't make them any more and the population inevitably will decrease over time. Therefore the few coins of a small mintage in extremely good condition are probably likely to increase in value.</p><p><br /></p><p>I understand that every "investment" is a risk.
