    Its a good deal DUI. High leaf goes for $900 at ms65 by itself. You wont regret it. Unless of course you will regret it. Then that statemet will turn out untrue. Whew...too much oxygen.

    Yeah, don't.

    This variety has been highly marketed and promoted and in my opinion, would be a poor choice if you are concerned about future value.

    Then again, if you like it, and want it, who am I to suggest otherwise?

    I'd have to agree. I think we'll see the price on this error come way down in the future. It's a neat error, or whatever it is, as I think there is still plenty of controversy over whether it's an error or made on purpose, and having one would make a nice addition to any collection. It really comes down to whether or not it's worth it to you, not us. A price that I find too high may seem reasonable to you.

    OK so the whole Bob Ford thing is nothing special ,the one reason i thought it might be a good investment is that their are only 100 of these Bob Ford discovery coin sets and Mr. Ford passed away last year so i can only assume that their will never ever be anymore made...
    Thank You guys for the help

    There is no "good" coin investment. Buy it because you like it. If you buy hoping to make a profit someday, you might as well save your money for a trip to Vegas.
