<p>[QUOTE=&quot;xlrcable, post: 1890193, member: 41288&quot;]Right of course. I know. And I really don&#039;t have any problem with Reynolds&#039;s conclusions - I just don&#039;t think his tables of market values are a good way of supporting them, since plenty of coins that Reynolds can&#039;t stand also have high market values. But looking again at his article - he wants to validate his opinions on an absolute financial basis, and so he&#039;s dismissive of people who date the classic era according to historical events (the withdrawal of gold coinage) or sentimental factors (date ranges in old coin albums). Well, what&#039;s coin collecting if you suck all the history and nostalgia out of it? Just a weird and seriously ill-considered investment strategy, if you ask me.</p><p><br /></p><p>When I read cladking&#039;s forthright defense of moderns, it makes me feel like collecting more moderns.
