<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mainebill, post: 3627396, member: 44004&quot;]I see that all to often at antique auctions especially with gold. Common lower grade coins like baggy au/unc bringing full retail. A lot of people want gold in their safes or just like the look of the old coins. And a lot of gun lovers are coin lovers and vice versa. I know a lot of people like that. The old gold and silver dollars as well have a lot of allure with their link to history plus being a big old coin made of precious metal. These casual collectors don’t know the subtleties of the coin market or grading and have at best a red book for prices. On the positive side. I’ve seen a lot of these type collections where they bought them at old prices held on for a decade or two and did really well. On the positive note on sales like this I can usually sneak any better early silver and copper out for a decent price by knowing how to grade and rarity[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
