<p>[QUOTE="illini420, post: 1219081, member: 19423"]I buy many of the modern commemoratives (post-1982) of the designs that I like. I really like the 1992 Columbus Dollar w/ the space shuttle reverse. I also like the "Nolan Ryan" Baseball Dollar from 1992. The 2006 San Franscisco Mint Dollar with the Morgan Dollar reverse is also pretty sweet. Lots of others as well. Often, you can buy these coins, even the gold ones, for their melt value. I've even bought several of the Silver Dollars in PCGS or NGC slabs for their silver melt value. They will always be worth at least the value of their silver content, so if you treat them like bullion investments I think that buying the designs you like is a great idea provided you're not paying big premiums to get them.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>But yeah, as a coin collector, I much prefer the classic commemoratives and I buy lots of those too... just much harder to get those for silver melt value <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
