<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jloring, post: 431308, member: 15518&quot;]I talked to my dad (1916-2006) at length about the economic ups and downs he had lived through... the depression, WWII rationing, the boom times of the 50&#039;s, etc.... and there was one common factor: he always remained optimistic in bad times and somewhat pessimistic in good times. He was always conservative, saved his money, was cheap... oops, I mean thrifty, always worked hard, enjoyed his life and his retirement to the fullest. He supported my coin collecting &quot;habit&quot; as a kid back in the 50&#039;s, so I think I chose a pretty good hobby. But since I&#039;ve been out of collecting for so long, what has happened in the past to coin values during economic swings? Can I expect to go into my local coin shop and see prices slashed? Or will values remain basically the same or even increase? I&#039;m not interested in selling, only in buying![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
