<p>[QUOTE=&quot;srkjkd, post: 191359, member: 7248&quot;]in late 79 to early 1980 prices were really poised to &quot;break out&quot; in the precious metals market as well as in &quot;investment potential&quot; rare coins..experts were definitely saying buy silver gold and ms 65 coins like morgan dollars..buy buy buy the prices are going to skyrocket. silver was around $45 and morgans were hitting (if memory serves)... close to $500... wall street investment houses were all over it so&nbsp; it must be good. they are experts in finance!!!&nbsp;&nbsp; hmmmm...how did they do?&nbsp; coins are like anything else...a given coin is worth x amount of dollars to individual&nbsp; x at any given time. i could buy an 1875-S trade dollar in xf condition for 150-200 when i was collectiing in 1980-89 era and, well, they are pretty much same price since then. other coins have fared better..others haven&#039;t. unfortunately i really don&#039;t know the future. i want to believe i am buying incredible bargains with every single purchase i make at any given time and when i sell, it will be at the most extravagant prices ever paid for that date and denomination.&nbsp; those purchases will be legendary in the coiin community!! or at least in my mind!!! unfortunately, it probably won&#039;t be that way, so i will settle for having paid a fair price for nice coins which i have enjoyed for years. settling for &quot;the enjoyment of my purchases was legendary!&quot;...wish there was some way to determine&nbsp; cycles and whats undervalued at any given time plus what will be the demand in the future. i can&#039;t even guess the future price of the djia for a year despite having all the financials and technical info to go thru.&nbsp; sorry for the long post .just my own observation and opinion for what little its worth..steve[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
