<p>[QUOTE="SeatedLibLover, post: 75795, member: 4149"]I am not sure exactly what you are asking, but the closest I have ever been able to come to stopping collecting numismatic coins was to focus on putting my money into one ounce silver bars and rounds for awhile. I did this because I believe silver is currently undervalued and will eventually rise dramatically in price, so I set a goal of obtaining 1,000 ounces of silver in one ounce bars, rounds, and American Eagles. (purchased at about 10-20 or so ounces per pay check.) What ended up happening is the coin collector in me wanted to keep them all perfect, so I ended up buying Airtites for each piece, lowering the possible gains for each one...and then I got really interested in the different silver art bars and rounds from the 70's and started trying to get as many different designs as I could, so it ended up being about collecting anyway, and not so much about the bullion, lol. When I hit my goal, I got a safe deposit box, stuck them all in there, and am now back to numismatic coins. So I guess I am a collector at heart, and always will be.</p><p> <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
