<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 945039, member: 19065"]Yes, AGE coins are minted first and foremost for bullion purposes. And, Yes, they can gain numismatic value, for several reasons: without Proof or burnished "W" mintmark examples currently being issued, collectors may have begun buying current issues to fill holes, if any collector chooses to collect bullion examples of AGEs, they may be willing to pay more than spot plus the nominal premium bullion eagles command to acquire them, the Eagle coin program may one day end and collecting these coins may take off intensifying numismatic premiums on these coins, some years and some denominations of Eagle coins have much lower mintage figures, implying that there is some rarity to that issue and some collectors follow the numbers for rarity valuation as key coins in a collection, thus they may be collected and trade for greater than their intrinsic commodities market defined bullion price. Any of this can be said to be currently true, happen today, tomorrow, this year or one hundred or more years from now.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
