<p>[QUOTE="mkwelbornjr, post: 1564322, member: 17034"]No doubts. But that doesn't mean the original issue price was out of line for the quality received when compared to the prices charged by other mints and primary suppliers of product. You should buy collectibles for enjoyment. The public always gets involved in speculation for the wrong reason. Its hurt the coin market in the past and gives a bad name to legitimate operations. Private companies don't exist to sell stuff at the cost of the raw materials involved. In many cases the US Mint charged more for their single silver Commems and in some cases those have dropped in value as well. If selling people should never take this stuff to a coin shop. Sell straight to the collector who wants it. Often people say they have a mint set when its really in bad shape. Of thats the case its not even worth melt to me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
