[QUOTE="modernman, post: 350163, member: 11789"]a multi-hundred percent spike in US Mint products is possible, but it's rare. the spike is usually attributed to the coin being identified as a "key" in the series. i got in on the 2006-w burnished ASE. they sold for $19.95 but shot up to $100 on Ebay within a few months because the Mint suddenly stopped selling them and they were "low mintage." i bought 5 but wished that i had bought 100 of them. the same for the 2006 3-coin 20th anniversary ASE set. they sold for $100 at the Mint then jumped to $450 on Ebay because it had a "low mintage" ASE reverse proof in the set. i bought a few and luckily didn't have time to open the boxes and found out later than the sealed boxes are worth more because PCGS will only grade the set if they are unopened. if you can get your hands on rolls of 2008 lincoln cents you can make a few hundred percent profit, or if you can get your hands on the 2009 commemorative lincoln cents next year they will definitely jump a few hundred percent or more.[/QUOTE]
