<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikenoodle, post: 602054, member: 307&quot;]I am wondering what excites the masses here. We all have a passion for coins, and we have our favorite series, but is there something that you&#039;re working on right now that you really feel is going to be moving upward in the future?</p><p><br /></p><p>For example:</p><p><br /></p><p>Me, personally, I am putting away regular circulation strike coins of each year as it passes. My thought is simple: the current circulating clad coins are generally not collected in Mint State, but generally are collected more by beginners as a gateway. They go into the Whitman folders, get fingerprinted up pretty badly and even dinged around on themselves. </p><p><br /></p><p>In the past, when we have put together nicer MS sets, generally the way to find nice, fresh unc coins was to break up Mint Sets. Unfortunately, in 2005, the Mint started issuing satin finished coins in these collector sets. Leaving no future source to readily grab a few nice MS coins. If people save rolls, like in the 50s, this won&#039;t be a problem. Nor would it be if they collected bags, but these coins hold virtually no value over face, so there&#039;s no reason to keep them in bulk.</p><p><br /></p><p>The impact this may have on the future is that nice, original MS clad coins will be harder to find, and they may start to carry a premium. This is pure speculation on my part, but I put the coins away at face, so there is no potential for me to lose on this, other than the use of the money itself.</p><p><br /></p><p>So I ask the teeming masses in CT...</p><p><br /></p><p>Is there anything that you feel are currently undervalued and a relative bargain to buy? I figured that if we all share our ideas, we may all benefit from the different perspectives.</p><p><br /></p><p>What say you?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
