<p>[QUOTE="coleguy, post: 1545145, member: 9167"]I can't think of a single instance in history where a collector was able to purchase a coin without it's silver/gold content being at least the base price, so I'm not sure this is the OP's concern, foremost. However, with the bullion craze, not so much now as it was a few years back, it has made it difficult at best to secure common coins needed for one's collection not because of price, but because of hoarders. Coins that were once plentiful, such as common date Morgans and Peace dollars have all but disappeared for the collectors, at any price. If this is what the OP was referring to, I sympathize. It's frustrating to no end. But, i guess if not for the silver mongers out there, I would have never assembled the fine large copper and token collection I now have. In time the fad will wane and all those pieces of silver will once again flood the collecting community with coin.</p><p>Guy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
