<p>[QUOTE="smb12321, post: 80251, member: 3682"]Speedy - Take this for what it's worth but since you have money burning a hole in your pocket, you might consider pre-1815 coins. As an investor as well as collector, I have noticed a shift in the past few years towards the dwindling supply of these, especially in grades 'F' and up. The rise has been steady at about 15%/year for several years (more so as the grade rises) and with the increasing number of Japanese (one recently bought 800 Bust Dollars from a dealer pal), the price is predicted to continue its rise.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have seen my own type set appreciate $15,000 in the last 14 months. While modern silver and gold will hold their value, the real rise (IMHO) is in rare old issues. Alas, the old law of supply and demand is still in effect.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck,</p><p>SMB12321[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
