<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mr. Coin Lover, post: 699146, member: 16060&quot;]Today I completed my Buffalo Nickel set with the purchase of a 1913 s Type II. The one prior to this was the 1921 s.&nbsp; There is a thread about denominations rising in value, but my wife asked me a specific question I didn&#039;t know the answer to. So I thought I would start a new thread and get some opinions.</p><p><br /></p><p>First, it took me almost two years to complete the set.&nbsp; All the years with all mint strikes, and this will be my last big and complete set.&nbsp; I will say I had looked at hundreds of these two over the period, and a year or year and a half ago I could not have touched these two coins for what I got them for now. So it definitely shows me the price of coins have come down. Betwen coin prices coming down and patience some good buys are definitely possible now.</p><p><br /></p><p>In just a few years the Buffalo Nickel will be 100 years old since its debut.&nbsp; I know it will be 101 in 2013, but coins usually work on the repeat year.&nbsp; Examples include the ASE 10th and 20th anniversaries, Lincoln Cent 100th, and the Roosevelt West Point in&nbsp; &#039;96.&nbsp; The question my wife asked me was will the Buffalo series go up a lot in 2013? I told here I&#039;m not sure. </p><p><br /></p><p>I thought a lot about that today and many coins wil start to become a hundred years old soon that are already popular.&nbsp; Off the top I can think of the Mercury Dime, Standing Liberty Quarter, and Walking Liberty Half Dollar.</p><p><br /></p><p>So my question is when a series does enter the 100 year old mark, does it cause them to increase in value, especially with a series that is already very popular?</p><p><br /></p><p>Or will the secenario be a lot of initial hype with the cost going up, then back to pretty much norm?&nbsp; I know this is just speculation, but I am curious as to what other members think on this.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
