Message:: [QUOTE="About Good, post: 843130, member: 21547"]I want to apologize to everyone here on my prediction. I did not do my due diligence in research before I spouted off about the Disabled Veterens Coin.I really just started collecting commeratives in 2009, starting with the Lincoln. I saw an increase in that price , as well as other commens in the past, 2001 Buffalo, 1930's commens, etc... After I realized the Disabled Veterens wasn't selling as good as I thought, I went into research as to why. I have always done my research , and did on this coin, but NOT deep enough... It seems that the U.S. Mint has, for years, played on the heart strings of our Veterens when it comes to commerative coins. Had I realized that :1) 1991 Korean War Memorial coin.2) 1991 USO commenorative coin.3) 1991-1995 50th anniversay World War II4) 1994 - Vietnam Veterens memorial coin5) 1994- U.S. Prisoner of War coin.6) 1994- Women of Military coin.7) 1995 - Civil War Battlefields coin.8) 2002 - West point Bicentennial coin9) 2005- Marine Corps 230th Anniversary coin.There may be more, but it seems they have sucked as much out of the poor Veterens as they can, and seems most have tired of it. I thought this was the first year to celebrate them, and they should of started with the disabled. And I am sorry I did not do my research first on this. But, I can see where enough is enough. But , I did make a purchase, but I hope they give them a break.With the Boy Scouts coming out now, I can see that it may be popular due to they have never recognized them in the past. I now look at it, if they have not done coins in the past, to anticipate a winner in the future. My .02, I hope you like my analogy....[/QUOTE]
