<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 52389, member: 68&quot;]I&#039;m curious what microscopic difference is being referred to.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>This is a far greater difference than the difference between 1804 dollar and an 1803 dollar.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>History is still being made even today and we actually are in on it.&nbsp; While people far in the future may look back and say most of us are too wrapped in everyday concerns they will certainly be able to identify the important statesmen and visionaries of the time.&nbsp; Just because Paul Revere doesn&#039;t exist today doesn&#039;t mean there are no people equally or even more important to history.&nbsp; Just because we can&#039;t identify them with great accuracy because of our closeness to them and the events, and because we lack the hindsight hardly means that history stopped in 1776 or in 1965.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>One can think what he will about these coins but nearly two thirds are probably in circulation now and still there aren&#039;t vast numbers turning up.&nbsp; With every day that goes by the chances of more appearing decreases.&nbsp; Sure it&#039;s risky to buy these for speculation when there are still untold millions in mint and fed storage but then it&#039;s always risky to buy any coin for speculation.&nbsp; If you want one for a collection it&#039;s possible a window of opportunity is closing as the last of the first batch of these is being cleaned out of circulation.&nbsp; How many people have been waiting to buy these?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Whatever happens to the price is really mostly irrelevant anyway when you consider that these coins have again riveted public attention on coins.&nbsp; Thankfully we seem to be getting better at capitalizing on this attention to recruit a new generation of collectors.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
