<p>[QUOTE="green18, post: 1896649, member: 10103"]It's an American Commemorative coin and not in the same class as an ASE. You have to make the decision as to whether you want to collect coins for the love and fun of it or for their intrinsic value. Either way you can lose money. Traditionally, modern commems lose value once they leave the mint. Many of them go for significantly less than their original issue price in the aftermarket. ASE's are tied to the bullion market and the spot price of silver on any particular given day. If you bought your eagles 'high' you could lose a significant amount of money if Ag. were ever to 'tank'. Either way, it's a crap shoot.</p><p><br /></p><p>Personally, I believe the HOF coins will hold their value with the passage of time. Hey, but what do I know?
