<p>[QUOTE="jloring, post: 1359469, member: 15518"]I think the purpose of Doug's graph was only to make a point that I've read numerous times on CT over the past 3 1/2 years... that "coins are a lousy investment". However, if I read Rono correctly, he's basically a collector, not an investor, and looking for ideas for improving/completing sets, keeping in mind that at some point in time his heirs will have possession of same. And he does mention "hold their value" as opposed to "increase" their value. Of course, no one has a crystal ball that seems to work, so my recommendations would be worthless anyway.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
