[QUOTE="statequarterguy, post: 2154819, member: 21782"]Any Silver or base metal U.S. Mint coin issued in the last 20 years with 100k or less mintage has been a money maker and has held a significant gain in value. Any Silver or base metal U.S. Mint coin issued in the last 20 years with 250k or less mintage has also been a money maker (to a lesser extent) and has held a gain in value. Some like to refute this with references to the P-Mint Pucks. If you bought the whole series to date you would have a gain. And, if you only bought selected issues and you’re in the hole, you are in the hole a lot less than stackers, that’s a win in this PM market. Others ask, what about modern commems. If you bought all the unc issues (no proofs), like I did, your investment shows significant gains. Disclosures: A 20 year period was chosen because that’s about when The Mint started these issues, with the 1994-P Matte Nickel. The modern unc commems starter in 1982, so the period for these commems is 33 years. Gold & platinum coins are not included above because there are far fewer collectors of these coins, so far lower mintages are required for the coin to be a “winner”. ASE’s are one dollar coins, so they are included above. Conclusion: Buying the issues mentioned above is a “no brainer”.[/QUOTE]
