<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1831403, member: 19463"]I find it interesting that IOM and I quote the same line. It seems that YOC believes that people buying from him will not be able to recoup their money in 20 years. My question is whether there will be enough billionaires interested in ancient coins to absorb the IOM collection and the rest of the coins from Triton sales (and better) when he is finished with them. Many of my coins from my younger days might sell for 5 to 10 times their original price but others went the other direction. The same can be said for stocks and other investments. Anybody know what Athena Fund II was? For those of you who are only interested in cash appreciation, I maintain that coins are a risky place to stash your millions. For those who actually like the coins, there is no problem. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I admit curiosity as to what makes a coin one of the 'perhaps 2'. I also have curiosity as to how a dealer can give proper service to his buyers if he believes it is possible to see it all in only 20 years. Perhaps if one were to get a job working for a major dealer, it could be done in well under that. Independently will be more difficult.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
