<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PeacePeople, post: 893369, member: 20082&quot;]I keep reading these threads and will agree with Raider that coins are not really that great of an investment, mostly if you are looking for high gains in the short term.&nbsp; I would consider 5 years a short term, unless you happened to buy a whole lot of ASE&#039;s about 5 years ago when silver was much lower than it is now, but that is only a coin in a sense that the US govt will buy it back at $1...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If I look at this with a little bit longer time frame, let&#039;s say 25 years, then I think I have something that you can generally buy on the cheap, for now and just might hit it bigger in that type, 25 years, of time frame.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I keep on looking at the modern commemoratives and seeing that the proofs were produced at 2 to 1 up to a 10 to 1 ratio over the coins.&nbsp; That just makes me wonder if all the people buying the proofs missed the boat a little bit?&nbsp; Maybe I missed the boat by a bit, but I&#039;m guessing only time will prove that out.&nbsp; Reality is it just makes me wonder why I buy the proofs when I get just as much enjoyment out of the regular stikes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
