<p>[QUOTE="Cloudsweeper99, post: 155115, member: 3011"]I've noticed that sometimes you can do exactly the right thing in collecting for investment purposes, but the coin market will try your patience and wait you out. I think you most likely have a wonderful collection that someday will create a lot of excitement and value for the owner. The problem might be that not enough time has passed yet. In another 50 to 100 years, the exact collection you own might be considered a valuable rarity because few others stayed intact. Unfortunately for coin collectors, we just don't have the 250 year lifespans required to really really benefit from the collections we assemble in our youth.</p><p><br /></p><p>So where I'm going with this is to suggest you pack them away carefully with instructions for some future generation of your family. They will love your letter, and it might actually make a significant difference in their finances.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
