<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 26417515, member: 68&quot;]The BU roll market was a mania. But it went bust because in 1964 the mint announced all coins forevermore would be dated 1964.&nbsp; This was the mint&#039;s way of saying there&#039;s no need to collect modern coins ever again.&nbsp; This broke the back of the BU roll market and undermined the proof and mint set markets.&nbsp; Most of the rest of the coin market just had pullback.&nbsp; Then in 1965 the announcement that they were going to not make silver at all but make clad 1965&#039;s forever more had broader effects on the coin market as&nbsp; more speculators took their wallets and went home.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I suppose a lot of sellers into the crash felt like their shoeshine boy had just told them they were saving their nickels to buy a bag of brand new pennies.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The more things change...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
