<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 200121, member: 112&quot;]The demand has increased that much. Since 2001 US coin values pretty much across the board have gone up about 300%. No not every coin has, but the vast majority have. Some have gone up even more. Some have even gone up that much and then dropped 50%.</p><p><br /></p><p>But the price of silver had little to do with it. Yeah it played a part, but the increased interest in coin collecting played a bigger part, a much bigger part. So did the increase in advertising and the news reports - not just news reports in the coin mags, I mean news reports on national TV and in all the local as well as the national papers. In the past few years coin collecting has become big news. The value of the US dollar has also played a part, so has the stock market and declining real estate market. People with money have been looking for places to put that money.</p><p><br /></p><p>All of these things and few more have played a part in the rising values of coins. It wasn&#039;t any single one of them - it was all of them combined and happening all at the same time that did it. If any one of them had not happened - the increase in values may not have happened either.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
