<p>[QUOTE="cladking, post: 1928764, member: 68"]I like the article and it's the same high quality they usually write but in this case it only brushes on the opportunities in modern world coins. US moderns are pretty much ignored but many world moderns have already exploded in price because just like US coins they were never saved. European coins have already experienced strong gains in most cases but some of these coins have yet to be affected yet are just as scarce. </p><p> </p><p>Some of the biggest opportunities are in Asian and South American coins as well as numerous African countries (Australia has already "gotten off the dime" but has a long way to go). India seems to be the focus of attention right now but this whole thing is just mushrooming. A lot of moderns are extremely scarce and people didn't notice because no one collected them. Now they are getting collected and some are scarce even circulated but many are scarce in pristine condition. It looks like the typical modern will be tough in Unc and then there will be several thousand examples in VF to AU that are spread far and wide which were taken home by tourists. Most of the rest are either low grade or have already been melted and turned into refrigerators.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
