<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 1886883, member: 15929&quot;]Well, since the thread as dissolved into collecting &quot;opinions&quot;, I am of the opinion that anybody who collects coins based solely upon their metallic content is cheating themselves out of the appreciation of the coiners art and high grade collectible coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>The CnClad series of coins has some fairly awesome looking coins, some fairly awesome varieties, some fairly awesome errors and some fairly awsome yet affordable prices.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am also of the opinion that folks were drawn into collecting Morgan Dollars simply because of the Silver content as the truth of the matter is, the Morgan Dollar never really circulated except in Casino Towns. The Casino owners of yesteryear made some quite impressive Silver Dollar Displays and since the coin didn&#039;t circulate, there are literally millions of them available for the right price.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, there are Millions of IKE Dollars around, some still in mint sealed bags but those bags do not always guarantee ANY MS66 coins. As such, once a &quot;dollar&quot; coin replaces the &quot;paper bill&quot;, I think interest in coin collecting will increase since there are literally billions out there to choose from. That choice will be from what new collectors can get at the bank which unfortunately will NOT be Morgan or Peace Dollars.</p><p><br /></p><p>Is there potential? Sure but the ducks gotta get lined up just right and there are folks out there working on that very situation with their research.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
