[QUOTE="QuarterEagle, post: 112114, member: 4780"]I like to collect quarter eagles--as you can probably tell by my sign-on name. I pay attention to ebay to see what's for sale, where coins are selling, etc. Recently, I have noticed prices increasing rapidly for indian head $2.50 pieces. In fact, prices are up so much on average that it has forced me to become an investor rather than a collector. I define collector as someone who does not sell coins. My thougths are: Has anyone else noticed this? Is this a bubble? I know that baseball cards hit their peak when I was growing up. Now most of my "cool" cards are worth about what they were worth in 1990. If prices continue to climb, what does it mean for the average collector? My guess is that fewer and fewer people start to collect.[/QUOTE]
