<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Suarez, post: 3542685, member: 99239&quot;]Don&#039;t believe the hype about coin prices going up, up, up. This is just marketing to breathe a little life into a hobby that&#039;s on life support.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unlike gut feelings and marketing hoopla, here&#039;s actual data. These are the average lot ending prices (minus hammer fees) for all lots sold across some 30+ auctioneers.</p><p><br /></p><p>2010 $1,405</p><p>2011 $1,837</p><p>2012 $1,798</p><p>2013 $1,660</p><p>2014 $1,496</p><p>2015 $1,237</p><p>2016 $1,309</p><p>2017 $1,126</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s probably not wise to extrapolate from such a short data set but the trend in collecting, overall, is headed south and dragging prices with it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Auctioneers and coin dealers in general don&#039;t want you to hear doom and gloom. Why would they?</p><p><br /></p><p>Rasiel[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
