<p>[QUOTE="robp, post: 4969806, member: 96746"]More than happy to wait up to a generation or longer for something that is unique, nearly so, or excessively rare in top grade. Leaving aside life-long collectors who will keep things for ever, many collectors get into the hobby in mid-age when family has grown up and they have surplus funds. They will probably sell up some time into their retirement, so working on the basis that only one person can have that unique coin, I have to wait my turn if I want to own it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
