<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CoinOKC, post: 141766, member: 2146&quot;]Smullen, you hit the nail on the head as far as &quot;collecting&quot; vs &quot;investing&quot; is concerned.&nbsp; These are two entirely different disciplines and, as far as I&#039;m concerned, never the twain shall meet.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If I decide to sell my collection one day and perhaps make a profit, well good for me.&nbsp; If not, then so be it.&nbsp; I don&#039;t collect coins as an investment, I collect them because I think they&#039;re neat.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>BTW, if anyone wants to collect 1976 Pintos, I applaud that.&nbsp; No, you&#039;ll probably never make any money from them, but the pleasure of collecting something you like FAR OUTWEIGHS the investment potential.&nbsp; Some people just don&#039;t understand this.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But, to answer the question you&#039;ve posed in this topic...&nbsp; You might try some of the bigger banks in your area.&nbsp; Two years ago, around Christmastime, I visited a large bank in my area and asked for Eisenhower Dollars.&nbsp; I wanted to give them out as Christmas gifts.&nbsp; They called the manager and he checked in the vault and told me that he had over 1000 of them - how many did I want?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So, interesting coins are still out there.&nbsp; But, give the banks a try; you might be surprised!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
