<p>[QUOTE=&quot;beef1020, post: 2443075, member: 24544&quot;]Watch the hyperbola, it only serves to cloud the issues here.&nbsp; No one has said there are not ways to make money in coins.&nbsp; You asked about investment in coins, which in general are a very bad idea, be it high dollar or low dollar.&nbsp; I have seen million dollar coins sell at auction later for half the price.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, there are a lot of way to make money in coins.&nbsp; As you pointed out dealers by definition make money if they are still in business, and quite a few of them make a lot of money doing it.&nbsp; Do you remember my first post, where I said part of the issue with investing in coins is the bid/ask spread, well dealers make money because that is their cut.&nbsp; But you didn&#039;t ask how to be a dealer, or even how to make money in coins, you asked about investing in coins, which is a whole different ball game.</p><p><br /></p><p>I want to make one clarification, I don&#039;t like investing in numismatic assets, but I think it&#039;s prudent to have a small portion of my investment assets in gold/silver.&nbsp; But like I said, I don&#039;t consider buying 90% us coinage at spot + premium to be investing in coins, it&#039;s investing in silver.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
