<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coleguy, post: 2052345, member: 9167&quot;]Like many coins, art has always been hyped to facilitate a market by those who have it, and those who want it. Picaso couldn&#039;t afford a pair of shoes during his lifetime, yet now his art sells for millions, because &quot;hoarders&quot;, a term not used in the art world, but understood to us, set the market by inflating the name of a little known and unpopular artist, for years, until it was ripe and ready to be used, thus making billions. The same is done with dealers and retailers of coins these days. A market is created where one didn&#039;t exist before, not so much because the collectors all of a sudden wanted a specific coin, but because those that had them hyped the coin until the market decided they needed it. Coins and art trade basically the same.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
