Message:: [QUOTE="green18, post: 1173881, member: 10103"]Well, I can applaud and respect you collectors.  You guys are true grit.  I'm a collector too, but I ordered one of the "pucks" for bullion reasoning.  I don't know, I just can't bring myself to collect this series.  I ordered the Hot Springs, and promptly cancelled when the order showed "in stock and reserved".  I questioned my motive to collect this issue.  Was it for pure collector sense or was it linked to the bullion rise fiasco?  Sadly, I concluded that I wasn't ordering one because I really wanted to own one, but I was, rather, caught up in the greed of the precious metals market.  That's not where I want to be.....that's not what I want to do.  Collector. That's what I want to be and do, so ya know what?  I ordered the Medal of Honor Gold unc.  I'd rather take that money and put it down on something that really means something to me than throw it away on something that possesses nothing more than intrinsic value.  I bid thee all the best of luck in collecting this series, but for me, I'll stick to my modern and classical commems.....<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
