<p>[QUOTE=&quot;umtrr-author, post: 369772, member: 5719&quot;]I worry about how many commemoratives and other Non Circulating Legal Tender items are produced-- it seems they&#039;re increasing at an increasing rate-- but overall I think the future of coin collecting looks pretty good especially in comparison to other hobbies.</p><p><br /></p><p>In terms of sports cards and other memorabilia, I frequently observe in sports collectible stores (including the high end &quot;Field of Dreams&quot; chain) that there are far higher prices on some items signed by some current or immediate past athletes vs. some well known veterans... and that bothers me.&nbsp;&nbsp; I suppose people have to &quot;monetize&quot; themselves while the gettin&#039;s good, but is a current star&#039;s signature really worth more than a hall of famer of the more distant past?&nbsp; As with coins, the market speaks...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
