<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rhoggman, post: 412626, member: 13987&quot;]I like this train of thought.....&nbsp; People often forget that 49k is a lot of coins that are mostly in a very high level of preservation. I don&#039;t want to take away from any perceived demand.... but come one. Let face it, they are readily available. </p><p><br /></p><p>Same with every ASE proof or UNC..... including the 95-W.... There are somewhere around 50,000 of these all in high levels of preservation. I do have a thing for ASE&#039;s though... I just pay bullion value for them. I like the proofs too, but paying out the yinyang for a graded ASE is silly. IT IS AN OUNCE OF SILVER!!!! Nothing more really.</p><p><br /></p><p>What would those kind of numbers do to a truly rare coin? Ruin it&#039;s reputation...</p><p><br /></p><p>MS70 presidential dollar proofs???? Need I say more? They are neat, and educational for children. </p><p><br /></p><p>I would take your money and go buy some nice MS Indian Heads.... you can find nice ones for the right price, and they might actually appreciate in value over the next decade...</p><p><br /></p><p>Just find something other than a handful of overpriced modern junk coins. The USMC commem might be worth it for $80, but once again, I find it hard to stomach that kind of price for a coin that will be readily available far into the future.</p><p><br /></p><p>Shoot for $230 you might run across a nice 1852 MS61-62 $1 gold piece.... much cooler IMO than the stack of junk you might be thinking about acquiring. I would also venture to say there are less than 50k of them to be had, but I could be wrong.....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
