<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1323450, member: 26302"]Lol yeah, but it sure would be tempting to go back and get some Gem Red BU chain cents and 1794 silver dollars, then maybe further back and get some bright shiny sestertii by the bagful......yeah woulda, coulda, shoulda. Best bet is to acquire what you can today, because if anything 35 years in this hobby has shown me, the coins that are available today sure seem to disappear from the marketplace over time. I am happy that I bought what I could when I could, but that goes for just 4 years ago as well as 30 years ago. If you think something is a nice, collectible coin and is available now, BUY IT! Trust me, way too many "boring" items that are everywhere one day suddenly disappear or are 10 times the price tomorrow. If I would have stopped buying after my chance to buy cheap silver, I would have missed out on cheap Romans, and cheap Chinese cash coins, items in the last 10 years have went from cheap and plentiful to scarcer and much pricier. </p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
