[QUOTE="Suarez, post: 4002929, member: 99239"]If the trend was always so clean cut and linear that would make it all easier. What conclusion do you draw when the opposite happens though? I can come up with many examples of the same top-grade type of coins selling for less on a followup auction. Just using simple logic you'd end up concluding that if buying high grade rare coins was a guarantee of value increase you'd see a return of mutual funds invading the auction circuit. I agree though that [B]generally speaking[/B] when it comes to ancient coins the cream of the crop (the 0.01% elite rarities) should increase in value the same way as any other art form does. If you can afford a Van Gogh or, say, a [URL='http://111w57.com/']111 West 57th St.[/URL] apartment then chances are great you can flip it for profit a few years later. What that says about the art collectibles or real estate industries as a whole is a different story. Rasiel[/QUOTE]
