<p>[QUOTE="National dealer, post: 3470, member: 487"]I have seen this question posted several times now, and it is quite correct in a no answer format. Coin dealers are not investment brokers.

Collectors should be weary of anyone other than an investment broker offering this kind of advice. When looking to coins, if the price is too good to be true, IT IS!

Now there are others that will be sold as investments. If a dealer suggests that a particular coin is a solid investment, run away. All prices will fluxuate.
