[QUOTE="Spargrodan, post: 5434410, member: 109905"]I think the value of most ancient coins have increased over the years.

Highend coins are probably better for investment as they will be easier to sell in the future. It's all a matter of supply and demand. Return can never be guaranteed but I frankly don't believe the coin market will crash either.
