<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 2195218, member: 26302&quot;]So who is the wise prognosticator that can choose that? What would you do, bet on key coins that are already MASSIVELY overpriced versus their rarity? Bet on modern issues that mintages continue to decline? Its a pretty far stretch to be able to pick the &quot;winner&quot;. I hear your theory, and I agree the upside for copper cents is very limited. However, so is there downside. So in this example I would say copper cents are like a safe bond and collectible coins like a tech stock. Both have their places, but there is no doubt cents are safer in my view, with lower potential increases, but also lower potential losses.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It reminds me of an article I read recently about baby boomers and their collectibles. They cannot find anyone who even wants their collections for most things, and the few things that can be sold are being sold. I simply worry about if coins will start feeling downward pressure from the mass of baby boomers starting to cash out. Maybe not the rarest pieces, which has a weird art like prices, but everything sub-$5000 I worry will fall under increasing volume pressure. Just a thought.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
