<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fatima, post: 1220542, member: 22143&quot;]I don&#039;t see any reason not to own any of these coins including the first year issues.&nbsp;&nbsp; For a while, when many were referring to them as uglies, they were good buys just from a bullion standpoint.&nbsp;&nbsp; These days even those coins carry a numismatic premium over spot gold.&nbsp;&nbsp; 1/2 ounce gold coin is a good size and compare what other coins of that size cost.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The lesson to be learned here is when the masses (of coin collectors) are saying something isn&#039;t worth buying, this is when you buy.&nbsp; My recommendation is to pick up any of these coins that you can get for a good price. </p><p><br /></p><p>(As a side opinion, many people mistake the rather homely nature of these women as making for an ugly coin.&nbsp; There is a difference.&nbsp; Many of these have excellent reverses and all have a good bit of Americana to them.&nbsp;&nbsp; It&#039;s certainly a refreshing change from the militaristic and too literal coins the Mint has been releasing otherwise.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
