<p>[QUOTE="wxcoin, post: 2851408, member: 74624"]That's why I collect as a hobby, not to make money. The collection I helped sell had 5 proof and 5 mint sets each year from 1968 - 2000; talk about losing money. The thing that offset the loss from the sets were foreign gold coins purchased in the mid 1970's and US gold commemoratives from the early 1980's when the price of gold was much lower. In the end her daughter was in shock over the value in the collection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
