<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ChasPay, post: 2709607, member: 86286&quot;]This may be the most entertaining thread I&#039;ve seen yet on CT. I mostly come here to use this as a resource to learn more about my coin collection and what is out there etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>I found the Harper&#039;s article by doing a bit of googling. My favorite part of being a history buff is coin collecting but sometimes I like to make fun of politics and the press by seeing how they have been rehashing the same things for not just a decade or two but a few hundred years. I love reading old issues of Popular Science, Harper&#039;s and the local Universities&#039; Collegiate and such online. </p><p><br /></p><p>Stacking or hoarding is nothing new. Vikings did it, Romans did it, everyone had done it. I have a friend who does it. I told him bullets and canned food make more sense but he doesn&#039;t listen and I&#039;m sure his kids and grand-kids will appreciate the coins and scrap gold and silver more than canned ham. </p><p><br /></p><p>In the long run and played right it is a sound investment. I think it is a matter of choosing wisely. I try to get him to consider the value of what he buys if the world economy doesn&#039;t collapse as well as if it does. Considering the economy as always will likely fall somewhere in between.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
