<p>[QUOTE="Agilmore01, post: 2684575, member: 45687"]I got out of collecting about a year and a half ago, and am just an observer now. I personally can't stomach taking much of a loss on a coin. I rarely did, but I saw how much I had spent on coins, and it freaked me out to think they could all only be worth face value one day. That's an extreme, but could happen. I saw that decline happen with my baseball cards I collected in the 80's and 90's. I spent all the allowance I got back then on cards, and when I went to sell the best ones I had the other year (Jackie Robinson, Willie May's, etc.), I was in utter shock how little I got for them compared to what I paid for them 20 years ago. Many of you on this forum can take the financial hits and stomach the ups and downs. I am not one, so I sold almost everything but the coins I inherited from my grandpa and just watch everyone else collect and admire from afar.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
