[QUOTE="Sholom, post: 581363, member: 17753"]Correct me if I'm wrong -- but from reading and learning here, it seems like this is the way it goes with everything new -- whether errors or not. This is what happened to the 1950-D nickel too, no? People knew it was going to be rare, everyone had to get one, prices went through the roof, and then settled back down. This phenomenon seems to be what's behind the 2009 lincoln cents -- which prices are settling back down now (except for "mint rolls" which are absurdly high . . . but, if it follows the pattern of everything else will come down) And, as folks here say, this is what _will_ happen with 2009 nickels and dimes. No one can find any right now. When they are found, prices will be high. Later on, they'll be more reasonable. This doesn't mean (as others have written) coins can't be a good investment. It does mean, however, that one must have a good knowledge both of coins _and_ the market and how it works in order to invest wisely.[/QUOTE]
