[QUOTE="Gallienus, post: 5309140, member: 42034"]I'm always interested in threads trying to predict the future of coin collecting and have followed many threads on this site for that. I can provide links to them on here {if desired later}. My comment was based on the price of gold and I was going to guess that after the vaccine's out & economy recovers the price of gold may drop. More common Honorius solidii may follow this but it may not affect the price of rarer Roman coins which have been on a strong positive streak: at least the rarer gold. Strangely enough, of the 2 coins I bought this year, one was gold and I'm in the process of bidding on another gold one! Normally my favorite metal is bronze but my last bidding attempt there lost out. I noticed that you apparently collect Byzantine from your collection at Forum Ancient coins. This is a facinating area historically and one in which I've considered adding more pieces. Unfortunately I'm already spread out into more areas than I can afford so I have to show restraint. As I've posted here before I also use my Ancients Collection to teach 6th graders about Ancient History as Shown by Coins at a local high school. I don't know how it'll work due to quarantine but this will be my 6th year doing this. [ATTACH=full]1224059[/ATTACH] --- They {&I} really seem to enjoy it and hopefully they learn something. Of course I don't get paid for this as it's a volunteer activity.[/QUOTE]
