<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 323279, member: 4626&quot;]Well none of them will go down in value significantly... but what goes up in value depends on how popular they end up becoming, and how demanded they are, especially when they&#039;re no longer available directly from the Mint.&nbsp; That&#039;s hard to figure out in advance, it boils down to how popular the design is, both amongst collectors and non-collectors, as to whether it will sell out quickly and whether people will want to continue to seek it out after the Mint stops selling it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Any gold will go up as gold does of course...</p><p><br /></p><p>2006W just turned out to have a lower mintage than expected, and then everyone wanted to jump on it because it looked like it might become a semi-key.&nbsp; Most ASEs have huge mintages (the 20th anniversary reverse proof, and the 1996W, are the exceptions, not the rules) so I wouldn&#039;t expect them to go up much, at least not very quickly.&nbsp; Most are no more than double melt value at most.</p><p><br /></p><p>Platinum eagles have pretty low mintages.&nbsp; Might be worth looking into if you can afford it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Try to spot the popular commemoratives.&nbsp; The Buffalo dollar was a big one, and is still very high for a silver dollar commem.</p><p><br /></p><p>Get the 10th anniversary platinum eagle set if you can afford it.</p><p><br /></p><p>The first lady coins, especially the Libertys, may turn out to go well.</p><p><br /></p><p>Other than that it&#039;s more luck than anything else.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
