<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisbauman, post: 288632, member: 9097&quot;]<b>SMOOTH EDGE or DOUBLE STRUCK</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Which will have the most appreciation in the next two years?&nbsp; &nbsp; My guess is if the Mint does do away with the edge incsription the Washington and Adams smooth edges will take off because all future presidential dollars would now be smooth and here you would have a limited amount of Adams and Washington smooth edges out there to complement the collection of presidential dollars with all smooth edges.&nbsp; Let&#039;s say it is next year and James Monroe is the 5th coin in the series to be released and the edge inscription has been eliminated so now you have&nbsp; one hundred million James Monroe presidential smooth dollars.&nbsp;&nbsp; In addition, each each future presidential coin produced will also be a smooth edge, so now if you want a complete collection of smooth edge presidential dollars you have to hope someone will sell you the 1 of 5000 Adams smooh edges estimated to be out there or the 1 in 150,000 Washington smooth edges estimated to be out there and as for Jefferson or Madison no one really knows yet what will happen with those.&nbsp;&nbsp; If the edge inscription does stay then I believe the double struck will do the best because the liklihood of another double struck batch ever happening again will be much more unlikely than a smooth edge batch.&nbsp;&nbsp; I think smooth edges will continue to occur on a small scale for all future presidents, but the only double struck we will ever see is with the Adams and two years from now if we have 10 presidents that have all had smooth edges found and the only occurence of any double struck was with the Adam then I bet these coins fly in price.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
