Collectible coins may increase, but most collectors will never see that increase, even if it happens, due to buy/sell spreads. Simply put, to quote Frank Robinson, &quot;Love your coins for what they are, not for what they are worth&quot;. I have $5000 coins, and $20 coins. I have some $20 coins I love more than my $5000 coin. I have a LOT of $200 coins I love more than the $5000 one. Price is only a budgetary restraint, you should love your coins for their beauty, history, artistry, not the price tag.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Treat every nickel you spend on coins as your entertainment expense. If you ensure you will get $200 of entertainment by owning a coin you spent $200 on, then you never &quot;lose&quot;.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Can people make money on collectible coins? Yes, they are called dealers. If you only buy and sell coins based on pricing, I would call you a dealer not a collector. Nothing wrong with it, but its not the same. Dealers can appreciate coins, but they are not &quot;addicted&quot; to them and have the same passion about them as collectors.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
