[QUOTE="EdGs, post: 2172668, member: 41448"]The coins would definately have to be in the original composition, not clad for previously 90% silver, etc.....and be a decent price (yeah, right... not sure if that would happen with the way alot of things are done nowadays, but I can dream.) They wouldn't have to be for general circulation, and they could be made in several different styles....business strike, classic proof, reverse proof, etc... And produced in quantities such that people could actually order. On some of the styles they could mint lower quantities and set it up where you register for whichever varieties you would like and give a credit card # one time, then they pick numbers at random for people to get 1 specimen of that particular type they are drawing for, and so on... I myself cannot afford most original specimens, but I would gladly buy the business strikes of as many as I could (provide, of course, that they are reasonably priced), and probably register for a few special ones, with the hope that i would get picked. It would take some effort to set up a good system, but I think they would be very popular.[/QUOTE]
