<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dug13, post: 4292678, member: 77843&quot;]Glad I&#039;m not going down this path by myself!</p><p>Physics-fan3.14 -- that&#039;s a wonderful example,</p><p>Goldfinger1969 -- great set of questions.</p><p>I appreciate the insight&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>I have been a life long &quot;Value Shopper&quot;. Not only in coin collecting, but all areas of my life. My collection is basic everyday examples of turn of the century coins, late 1800&#039;s to early 1900&#039;s,&nbsp; in the $100 to $1000 dollar range. I really enjoy Indian Cents, Buffalo Nickels and Indian Eagles. A few years back, I decided I wanted to add a few &quot;Stand Out&quot; examples of each of those series. (great term!, Goldfinger1969). The Stand Out coins I have perused are in the mid 4 figure range. Not Moon Money, but still a nice chunk of change. They only show up 2-3 times a year. I think I have come to the realization, that a great coin will (most) always be a great coin, no matter the current market. The nicer examples will always grab more attention, thus more money. </p><p>I was speaking with my neighbor last week, who has been buying/selling vintage-classic metal advertising signs for the last 20 years. He was telling me that the market has shifted the past few years. At one time he could re-sell any sign - any condition. He said now buyers are much more demanding in quality and appearance. Just any condition won&#039;t do - has to have eye appeal. He has less clients now but all are chasing the same high level signage. He said he never has a problem selling that level of sign.&nbsp; </p><p>So this probably holds true to those &quot;Stand Out&quot; coins. I will just have to up my ante and have no regrets. </p><p>Thanks Guys![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
