<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BigsWick, post: 72450, member: 3534&quot;]My stepfather got me into coins. He always treasured his silver over everything else.

No, you won&#039;t get rich off of a few nice 40% silver Kennedy halves, but the excitement of searching and discovering a 64 Kennedy or a Franlkin or a Walker has its rewards too. And consider that there are thousands of collectors out there who would snatch them up if they could, and millions of non-collectors who&#039;d keep them if they only knew what they were holding in their hands.</p><p><br /></p><p>Will silver go to $30 or $40 an ounce one day? Who knows. Maybe if the Hunt brothers are still around! I&#039;ll hang onto what I&#039;ve got, continue putting a little away at a time, and see what happens.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
