<p>[QUOTE=&quot;statequarterguy, post: 2112033, member: 21782&quot;]Well, I wouldn&#039;t say mintages in the 80&#039;s looked lower than the 70&#039;s or the 70&#039;s lower than the 60&#039;s - all were in the multi millions.&nbsp; And, the 70&#039;s &amp; 80&#039;s sucked, as there were no precious metals in most of the mint&#039;s offerings</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>10 years removed??? We have 25 years of data for the period 1990 to date, which produced many winners. There&#039;s no need to include 40 years in an analysis, unless your purpose is to tweak the numbers to look bad.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Modern commemoratives crash &amp; burn??? I don&#039;t see it, you must be talking about foreign commems., the U.S. commems I speculated on did very well. There&#039;s no need to buy only the lowest mintage coins to profit, as given demand, many of the lower mintage issues within a series will appreciate.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Of course, even with today’s low mintages, there will be winners &amp; losers. I wouldn&#039;t buy everything the mint offers - as with any endeavor knowledge is everything, so a knowledgeable collector should profit by choosing more winners than losers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
