[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 19303, member: 112"]The first thing I would ask is for you to define the time frame you are talking about. If you mean in your lifetime - and you are talking about average grade coins - likely nothing. As for a guarantee - absolutely nothing. However - if you are talking about high or ultra high grade coins for even the most common denomination - at some point in the future they will be worth a fortune. Heck - some of them already are today. $700 for an MS68 2004 nickel ???? :eek: $39,000 for an PF70 ( that wasn't really an PF70 ) cent ??? :eek: :eek: The list could go on forever. Of course - by tomorrow - these coins might only be worth $2 too !! As we have talked about here many times - coin collecting is not investing - it is coin collecting. If you wish to invest - go buy some stocks or some land. But if you insist on treating your collection as an investment - then you better do some serious study.
