<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JPeace$, post: 2387048, member: 42727&quot;]I agree with much of the sentiment.&nbsp; This does not strike me as a good &quot;money maker&quot;.&nbsp; The people purchasing these state quarter / national parks sets are typically buying from &quot;marketing machines&quot; like the Danbury Mint.&nbsp; They have nice display cases, and other forms of presenting the coins, pre-printed story boards, binders, etc....&nbsp; For your parents to be able to break into that market, they&#039;re going to need to spend a lot more than what I believe they&#039;ll be able to earn.</p><p><br /></p><p>IMO, they&#039;re spending an awful lot of money on coins that are being struck in the 10&#039;s of millions.&nbsp; There will be no scarcity or rarity for these coins.&nbsp; So the only other thing that will make them valuable is condition: perfect 70&#039;s.&nbsp; Who knows how long the market for MS70&#039;s will last.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m skipping through much of the details of my thought process, trying to only hit the highlights.&nbsp; Essentially, if your parents are trying to put money away as an investment, they&#039;d do much better putting it in an S&amp;P 500 index fund.</p><p><br /></p><p>I just don&#039;t see how they&#039;re going to make much if any profit with their plan.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
