<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BigsWick, post: 300308, member: 3534&quot;]Perhaps my approach is a bit simplistic to some, and it doesn&#039;t maximize the potential profit to be made versus buying and selling gold or silver bullion at the right time, but neither do I consider common DEs as bullion (Leadfoot), certainly not in the same category as the AGE. Perhaps it is merely a matter of perception as a coin collector, however jaundiced. To be sure there is an enormous potential intrinsic profit to be made off of bullion under the conditions that have existed as of late, but I&#039;m not so quick to dismiss the potential numismatic upside of holding actual coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Historically we&#039;ve seen the results of increased precious metal prices: Millions of coins melted for their value. The number of surviving examples decreased, their collectibility increased, and their value went up. No, I don&#039;t foresee gold hitting $2,500 an ounce in 2 or 3 years as some folks have predicted, but a marked increase in the price ($1,200 an ounce?) will undoubtedly encourage some folks to sell. Numbers go down, rarity goes up, value increases. Therein rests the rub.</p><p><br /></p><p>This discussion, however interesting, is tangential to my original question: I&#039;m more interested in knowing what the community believes to be the future of the Peace dollar.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
