<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dreamer94, post: 343605, member: 6449&quot;]There are apparently a lot of collectors out there with millions of dollars to spend.&nbsp; Every issue of Coin World has advertisements or post-sale notices for coins costing hundreds of thousands of dollars.&nbsp; Dropping $20K or so for a beautiful collection of gold coins might not seem out of line to someone in that league.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Just imagine an article in the 2020 issue of Coin World: <i>&quot;The First Spouse coins have an odd history.&nbsp; Initially the subject of frenzied speculation, the first 3 issues of this series set records for the fastest sellouts of any mint product in history.&nbsp; However, as collectors realized that the frenzied buying was mainly speculators looking to &quot;flip&quot; the coins for a quick profit, prices took a nosedive and the coins in the series became white elephants.&nbsp; Simultaneously, the price of gold soared in 2007 and 2008, causing a large number of these coins to be melted for their bullion value.&nbsp; Today, few examples of the early issues exist and complete sets are extremely rare, bringing 6 figure prices at auction.&quot;</i>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
