<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dafydd, post: 26317341, member: 86815&quot;]This is probably the best advice [USER=150064]@-monolith-[/USER]&nbsp; Collect for interest and education not profit.</p><p>The possibility of prices becoming decimated by new discoveries is always there.</p><p>If we ignore demand and supply a coin bought for $100 10 years ago would naturally gravitate to $135 based on inflation alone. I seldom sell coins unless I am attempting to trade with an auction company to target a purchase but if I can trade at an approximate value paid several years ago I am satisfied. </p><p>25 years ago I hit hard times as a result of an embezzlement and had to sell a collection of historical medals including Naval and Polar exploration medals and was astounded that I had doubled my original cost in under 5 years. At that time I thought the purchasers had vastly overpaid. 25 years later some of these medal groups would sell at the price of my home!&nbsp; Some of this can be attributable to niche trends and new books and movies generating interest. </p><p>Fiat currency such as the US Dollar and British Pound is simply a figment of our imagination and controlled by the central banks and government and there are still people who believe that &quot;if you can&#039;t hold it, you don&#039;t own it!&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
