<p>[QUOTE=&quot;conderluva, post: 764539, member: 21717&quot;]I have to agree.&nbsp; There is a lot of risk in numismatic investments.&nbsp; Certainly, potential to make a good buck exists but there are better places to invest your money if your not in it mostly for the hobby aspect.&nbsp; To me collecting is a passion.&nbsp; It brings me joy and is a part of who I am.&nbsp; I find that in most cases the pieces I like I also feel may yield a nice return in the future but I understand that there is no guarantee.&nbsp; So I only buy things that I absolutely love (I make sure that I love them to the point that I don&#039;t foresee having a desire to sell them.)&nbsp; This way if they fall in value I still enjoy being their caretaker. </p><p><br /></p><p>Investing is a job and it requires a constant study of the market.&nbsp; If you are not willing to put the time into monitoring and analyzing the market then you are not willing to be an investor... and you should expect financial losses.&nbsp; The idea of buying something and expecting that it must go only up in value over any period of time is foolish (i.e. the mentality of most homeowners pre 2008)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
