<p>[QUOTE="Argento, post: 525447, member: 17165"]This whole concept is very new to me and I struggle to understand why it exists. Even more bizarre is the concept that a coin with an intrinsic value is somehow "not real". Even the name of this forum suggests an ostracized view of the practice of collecting these coins. It's as though there is no purpose for these coins other than pure investing.</p><p><br /></p><p>A co-worker just pointed out that it might be an extension of the eternal rich vs. poor struggle.
