<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Juan Blanco, post: 1573560, member: 41665&quot;]Very interesting thesis and although I don&#039;t agree that will/must happen, it&#039;s another Coin-Risk to duly note. I suppose the demographics must change - presumption declared - or the coin business largely withers &amp; dies within a decade. An explosion of counterfeits couldn&#039;t help demand, IMO.</p><p><br /></p><p>But - to argue the contrary opinion - I think <i>the old-school hype/fraud should increasingly fail</i> as &#039;low-information&#039; consumers (poorer whimsy collectors) are replaced with &#039;high information&#039; consumers (more affluent savvy investors) and better/increasing regulation.</p><p><br /></p><p>Over the next few decades, I foresee US (quasi-numismatic?) coin premiums falling for different reasons, but decreasing demand can take various forms and rationales, YES. Retail bullion demand has seen a sharp increase in the last decade, has it not?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
