<p>[QUOTE="Numismania, post: 1227831, member: 28971"]BUncirc is 110% correct. I collected these for a registry set early on. The MS66's, and 67's, which where almost top-pops at the time, well....what was going for $200 or more just 2 years ago, man, they don't even fetch 1/4 of that now. There are SOOO many minted (which won't be the story in the near future), the pops are just going wild. Check Teletrade's realized prices. Even the MS67's are going for less than shipping costs. As BUncirc said, unless you grade them, and make MS68's or PR 70's (or MEL;s or some other type of error), these will not be worth the grading fees. I bailed out and lost half, though if I had waited longer, I'd have really been upside down on them. Get a Dansco, fill it up, and in the end, you'll at least have a few $$ saved to spend. This is one series that has NO potential, unless, as I said, you are fortunate enough to make a top-pop. Collecting these for a registry set, mistake. For investment purposes??? NEVER. </p><p><br /></p><p>There are millions of these sitting in bank vaults. As I said, for an album, they're ok, but for anything else....no way. Put your money into some other series. Ultra moderns are way too risky, as they just mint way too many. Errors in ultra moderns are the only thing that'll be worth anything. As for the Prez $$, just look at the Washington Missing Edge Lettering. Big $$ early on, now, they don't even bring $100....I can't even sell mine, in PCGS MS65, for $75. Save your money for REAL coins. These won't appreciate for the next 2 generations, if even then.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
