<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hobo, post: 1053542, member: 11521&quot;]Are you a collector or an investor?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If, as you say, you &quot;expect to realize a profit on all (your) purchases&quot; you should stop buying coins today. In general, coins are a bad investment. Ignoring the fluctuations in the price of PMs, it is VERY difficult for a collector to break even on a coin, much less turn a profit. This is because collectors generally buy at retail and sell at wholesale. Even if you sell your coin at auction (and the coin brings close to retail) you will have to pay 15% or more in auction fees. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I am a coin collector. I collect coins for pleasure. If I make a profit when I sell a coin that is all the better.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
