<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dynoking, post: 8117412, member: 81795&quot;]Good point. But who is &quot;the market&quot;? Knowledgable collectors or clueless people who think they are making an investment? Think about it. $395 for a MS 63 Kennedy half. A coin with a resale value likely slightly below or at best melt? The coins displayed on tv looked like crap. It could be said buyer beware, or do your due diligence.</p><p>I&#039;ve seen the end result of these tv show investments. EX; $100 face of UNC clad state quarters in mint rolls and plastic clam shell. Sold on tv with a huge mark up from the US Mint price. An invoice total of $615. The purchaser and later his estate thought the &quot;investment&quot; would be worth thousands only to find out the resale value was closer to face.</p><p>My gripe here is concern for the hobby. Maybe I&#039;m taking it a too seriously. Thanks for letting blow this off my chest.
