<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Treashunt, post: 284970, member: 6763&quot;]Also, consider this:</p><p>&nbsp; If I buy a 1896 S Barber Quarter for $650 and it goes up 10% that is an increase of $65-- not small potatoes.</p><p><br /></p><p>If I buy an 1897 S quarter for $40, then that same 10% is only $4.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, if all else remains equal, buying 16 1897 S quarters (as if you could find them) = $640, and you would earn $64 (10%) more easily than the 1896S&#039;s increase.</p><p><br /></p><p>Remember, it is easier for a lower value coin (but still scarce and in demand) to increase by the same %&#039;age than a higher value coin. There are more collectors for the lower cost coin than the higher one.</p><p>&nbsp;(But, I will still buy all the properly graded 1896 S&#039;s that I can find).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
