<p>[QUOTE="Bill in Burl, post: 3006468, member: 23692"]What a coin is worth is strictly based on supply and demand. Even if only 50-100 of a coin are struck, if there are only 25 collectors, the coin is essentially worthless except as an oddity. Like all Mint "Special Coins" from around the world that have overrun the markets since the 70's and 80's (but even worse now), they were overpriced to start with and worth even less now. Coins struck by Canada's Royal Canadian Mint, which spews out coins like a gushing dam, can be bought on the secondary market for 60% or less of the issue price on the secondary market 3-4 years after issue.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
