<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 1581428, member: 4626&quot;]Currently the only reason these have gone up in value since being minted is the gold they contain has gone up in value.&nbsp; These aren&#039;t high mintage, but remember it&#039;s not rarity that makes coin valuable, it&#039;s rarity relative to demand (as one person on this board said once, &quot;a mintage of 2 is still too high if only 1 person wants it.&quot;)&nbsp; Some of the lower mintage ones (and they&#039;re getting lower all the time because of low demand) have gone up in a price a lot since release, but this is probably just speculation and the price will likely go back down eventually when they&#039;re not as &quot;hot.&quot;&nbsp; You could have doubled your money if you had good timing lol... but heck you know the exact time when prices are in their peaks and valleys you can be rich buying just about any commodity.</p><p><br /></p><p>Currently the most demanded are the &quot;Liberty&quot; issues (the ones where the president at the time had no spouse while president because they were a widower or bachelor) because the design is thought of as being more interesting.&nbsp; Those are the ones where the value went up not just because of the bullion value.</p><p><br /></p><p>Long term, who knows.&nbsp; If a lot of these get minted because nobody cares about them they may be rare in the future... but if the demand doesn&#039;t go up down the road it won&#039;t matter how rare they are.&nbsp; The demand is too niche now to expect them to gain much in the short term.&nbsp; They may pay off in the long term if demand goes up in the future.&nbsp; I&#039;ve some relatively rare gold items not go up in value at all beyond their bullion value though, like the gold medals the mint produced before the American Eagle series.&nbsp; If we had a crystal ball we&#039;d all be rich lol... the only thing I can say with certainty is that if you get some they&#039;ll always be worth at least as much as the gold they contain.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
