[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 1486932, member: 27832"]Find a coin on the sidewalk, and it's an immediate infinite return -- but that's not really "investment", is it? :) When I'm biking in to work, I often see coins lying on the road in intersections -- including dimes and even quarters. Not a good "investment", though; I figure I'd probably pick up no more than a few dollars worth before getting hit by a car. The monetary value of my time is also a lot higher than it was when I was a kid picking up loose change. (For that matter, it's more work to reach the ground, too.) There's a good return when you buy a 90% silver coin for face -- but you have to consider the value of the time that you spend trawling through all the clads. Unless, of course, you view it as a hobby.[/QUOTE]
