<p>[QUOTE=&quot;faceglider, post: 1260725, member: 32190&quot;]I was at a coin show this weekend.&nbsp; One of the sellers suggested that I should start collecting high grade silver Roosevelts.&nbsp; His reasoning was that once Nancy Reagan passes away, there would be a likelihood that Ronald Reagan would be put on the dime, thus replacing FDR.&nbsp; Since it is the only U.S. circulation coin to be unchanged in so many years (although the Kennedy half hasn&#039;t really) in design, in his reasoning, this would create more demand for high grade Roosevelts.&nbsp; Now, I find many problems with this.&nbsp; One, I read about the idea of putting Reagan on the dime, about six or seven years ago, and I&#039;m not so sure that people would back (and Nancy didn&#039;t back it either) legislation that removed Franklin Roosevelt on the dime.&nbsp; And, even if that happened, how would that create a demand for Roosevelts?&nbsp; I don&#039;t know.&nbsp; That is why I am posting it on Coin talk.&nbsp; I&#039;d love to hear any opinions on this matter.&nbsp; I know that Roosevelts are overlooked.&nbsp; Personally, I&#039;ve started collecting high grade Silver Washington quarters because I think they are overlooked.&nbsp; And, I like them for some reason. </p><p>P.S.&nbsp; This was my first coin show and it was very exciting to chat with other coin aficionados.&nbsp; I still have SO much to learn.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
