[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 605030, member: 5233"]I don't think it's a fad...but the market might one day slow down. I think with any hobby, there are certain things that become extremely popular for a while and then might take a dip for a while. Here is an example to help illustrate what I am trying to say: One of my favorite hobbies has to do with collecting and restoring classic cars. In the 1980s and into the 1990s, among the most popular American cars were the Tri-5 Chevy's (1955, 1956, 1957). Everybody wanted one and the prices went through the rough.

The Tri-5's are still popular and have never gone down in value...but they aren't rocketing skyward in value like they were 15 years ago (and like the muscle cars are today). I wonder if toned coins will have a similar story. If they will spend a couple decades as the hobby's super expensive item before yielding that title to something else (yet still remain quite valuable themselves). I could see something like this happening, but I don't expect them to crash.[/QUOTE]
