<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JBK, post: 48335, member: 1101&quot;]They used to call these PNCs in the 70s when they first became popular (relatively speaking).&nbsp; It stood for Philatelic-Numismatic Cover.&nbsp; In my eyes, it blended two hobbies which are suprisingly incompatibe. In my experience, very few coon collectors also actively collect stamps, and vbice versa.&nbsp; So, neither side was especially happy about he marriage of the two in a collectible.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Most (all?) PNCs have never been a good investment.&nbsp; If the Buff nickel is HUGE and stays HUGE (yes to #1, not sure about #2) then MAYBE the item will increase in value, but otherwise I would say it is a poor investem , unless you can make a few bucks off speculative price increases.&nbsp; But, you will have to know when to sell and be quick about it.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It is a collectible, and is only worth the happiness you get from owning it.&nbsp; If you are looking for $$$ rewards, I would not go near them.&nbsp; I did buy a quarter one from a sentimental favorite state, but that is about it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
