[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 2145720, member: 15929"]Huh? [url]http://www.ebay.com/itm/2010-PCGS-Choice-BU-America-The-Beautiful-5-Oz-999-Silver-Hot-Springs-NR-2-/121633375838?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c51ea065e&nma=true&si=eG10y4YnyKtioHpSl%252Bk%252BhktMSk4%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557[/url] I realize that 1 eBay Listing does define the market but this one, simply does not have any numismatic value. Here's another one: [url]http://www.ebay.com/itm/2010-FIRST-STRIKE-Hot-Springs-Arkansas-NP-5oz-Silver-Quarter-in-Protective-Case-/201340964513?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2ee0db4ea1&nma=true&si=eG10y4YnyKtioHpSl%252Bk%252BhktMSk4%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557[/url] BTW, these were heavily "flipped" over and above the bullion value. I ordered these at $279 +shipping for a dealer that was offering $350 each for them. This continued for the next several issues until the consumer woke up to the fact that the market for these died on the vine. Walk into ANY B&M Shop in the country, and the dealer will offer silver spot for them. To me, that's not a winner. Especially if I was one of the unfortunate souls that paid $1,000 or more for a slabbed version. Here's an SP69: [url]http://www.ebay.com/itm/2010-P-5-OZ-Silver-Hot-Springs-SP69-PCGS-America-the-Beautiful-First-Strike-/361278556139?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item541de147eb&nma=true&si=eG10y4YnyKtioHpSl%252Bk%252BhktMSk4%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557[/url] (Still at less than issue price) Certainly not a good choice to defend as "doing quite well" especially if that "doing quite well" is dependent upon the price of silver. US Mint issue's, to be winners or to have real value (over and above a "hype inflated market" must have consistent, sustaining value. There are some exceptions but the fat remains that very few modern mint issues actually have sustaining numismatic value over and above their original issue prices.[/QUOTE]
