<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SuperDave, post: 2282651, member: 1892&quot;]It boils down to what you consider an appropriate timeframe for &quot;investment.&quot; If you choose to think no more than 5 years out, these &quot;coins&quot; might be a worthwhile course. <b>If</b> you plan to flip quickly and can ride the wave of popularity with non-experts better than the other eleventy-bazillion people who are doing the same thing.</p><p><br /></p><p>Otherwise, the things which create value with numismatic people who get it - <i>genuine</i> rarity, historic significance as circulating coinage - simply don&#039;t apply here. None of the features which make a Morgan a worthwhile investment for me exist here. There is no factual, reality-based appeal, just aesthetic. They&#039;re lumps of metal with additional value simply because the buyer <b>thinks</b> they have that value. The rarest of Modern issues - NIFC or not - would be a pretty hefty production issue for most Classics. It&#039;s taking a big chance to bet on the continued existence of a market large enough to maintain demand for so many examples, and an even bigger chance to believe that ephemeral market will be here at all in any &quot;long term&quot; sense. So many Mints in so many countries are exploiting this market that I&#039;m minded of Beanie Babies. What happens when people finally realize that there&#039;s more than enough for everyone?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
