[QUOTE="Owle, post: 763132, member: 22004"][b]Coin Collecting and Investing[/b] There are sensible compromises for those who want to collect US coins and probably make profits in the meantime. Large, popular gold coins, good for grade, in the $1500-$2500 area are low risk options. I would recommend going to coin shows for making substantial purchases. I received the Rosen Numismatic Advisory recently, his "Crystal Ball" report, with some major players in the field and their recommendations, I would recommend it for those who want to hold coins for the long term. I think we are comparing apples with oranges with the market highs of the 1980's. Those coins were hard to find in the certified holders, there were some investment firms at the time who were experimenting with an aggressive investment model which is hard to compare with a much smarter group of coin dealers and collectors in 2009.[/QUOTE]
