<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cmbdii, post: 3914, member: 655&quot;]Here&#039;s something to consider:&nbsp; The old 90% coins were struck of silver and each run had to be authorized by an act of Congress authorizing the mints to strike the number of coins for which bullion was available.&nbsp; These new junk metal fiat money coins are being struck in numbers and of materials which almost surely preclude their ever having any actual value.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; The silver proofs are the only coins of this type which have any intrinsic value and which are being struck in numbers which may allow for collectibility in the future.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; Of course, some people collect black velvet pics of Elvis.&nbsp; To those who do, there is a value to these things that not everyone would recognize.&nbsp; I think the same is true of these state quarters.&nbsp; There is a subjective value for some things that only a collector would appreciate.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
