Message:: [QUOTE="yakpoo, post: 671673, member: 18157"]OK, here's my 2 cents if anyone's interested... We're in the third year of a ten year run. Most of these coins will trade at about their bullion value until the series completes. The MS/PF-70 coins...and the "current key to the series" coins, may trade at a slight premium over bullion, but not by much. Once the series completes, I think these coins will become increasingly collectible. Collectors will be eventually drawn to this series by their low mintages and beautiful artwork rather than their "uninspired" (OK...I said it!) subject matter.  As gold prices increase, I expect a number of these coins may find their way into jewelry or the melt pot. I'm a Collector first and foremost...but like jaceravone, I think some of the coins in this series have tremendous upside potential. Cloudsweeper99's point is also well taken. The US Mint seems to be turning into a Franklin mint...churning out product, diluting the collector base, and relying on lower mintages to maintain collector enthusiasm (I hope I stated that correctly).  We have the State quarters, President dollars, Spouse gold, nickle series, penny series, next are the National Parks quarters...what's after that? ...the Classic Car series?[/QUOTE]
