[QUOTE="bhp3rd, post: 717199, member: 16510"]A coins worth, do you really understand what a coins worth means? It sounds like a simple question but I'll bet few people really know what this means or at the least may feel the need to re-think their opinion. A coins worth is value plain and simple but it's value or return at the moment of sale only anything else is just a big maybe! 1. Just because it is rare does not make it worth more or less it's just rare. 2. Charts and graphs are just guildlines they do not (by themselves) make a coin worth more or less. 3. It is true that silver and gold have some worth already built into them but it's still dependant on the buyer - he may offer this much or that much, all over the board we see it everyday. 4. Appraisels or insurence may attach a figure to your coins but they are there for one purpose only, replacement value or legal purposes unless stated up front that this appraisel will be an offer to buy. 5. We have a giagantic feel good mentality and that's only natural. We like to think our coins have value and may even increase in value over time. Maybe we will even hit a home run on a coin or two. What a coin is really worth is what a buyer we are able and ready to sell to will give us for that coin at that moment, nothing more. If you can take your emotions out of it you will see that worth is a fantasy for the most part. It's a guide nothing more.[/QUOTE]
