<p>[QUOTE=&quot;satootoko, post: 57580, member: 669&quot;]I assume that your second paragraph is a quote from the hype promulgated by the seller.&nbsp; It sounds like the kind of bull that the guys on the TV Coin Vault and Home Shopping Network spew out so lustily.</p><p><br /></p><p>As of the 2005 32nd Ed. Standard Catalog of World Coins, no 1996 Olympic commems have made it into the catalog.&nbsp; The most recent 20 Nuevo Soles listed is a 1992 proof 1 oz. silver, with no mintage shown and a Krause value of $22.50, about three times its bullion value.&nbsp; There are no Peruvian patterns listed after 1988.</p><p><br /></p><ul> <li>Do you like the way the coin looks?</li> <li>Is it being offered at bullion value plus a reasonable premium?</li> <li>Can you afford it, even if it can&#039;t be resold for what you pay (including S/H if you&#039;re not picking it up in person)?</li> <li>Does it fit in with the rest of your collection, or with one of your non-numismatic interests?</li> </ul><p><br /></p><p>My advice:&nbsp; If you can answer all those questions affirmatively, buy it!.</p><p><br /></p><p>Otherwise, move on.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
