[QUOTE="jody526, post: 16388, member: 578"]Thanks for replying. I kind of thought you were looking at it from an investment/resale point of view. See, I never buy coins with any thought as to their resale potential, so any input I can get from those that do, only benifits me and increases my awareness as to other aspects of the hobby. Yes, I have a LOT of money tied up in my collection, but it was money that was spent over many years, and I never spent enough at one time to hurt anything. I have a very good idea as to what each piece, as well as the whole collection, is worth. I have to do this for insurance purposes. I do have money invested in things like CD's, GIA's, savings accounts etc., but I would never consider coins as an investment. Just too riskey, and not enough potential. Now, don't get me wrong, there are certain coins that are virtually gauranteed to rise in value, but I can't afford those. Anyway, thanks for the insight, and good luck.[/QUOTE]
