<p>[QUOTE=&quot;skrilla, post: 59798, member: 3404&quot;]i really dont understand why you feel so insulted by what was replied to your post. it seemed a good collection of opinions and information ( minus a few posts). its truly impossible as was said to say &quot;this will definetly go up&quot;, because if we could, we would all be rich. there is absolutely no sarcasm intended or contained when i make that statement, its just a simple fact. i thought that the posts i made contained good information pertaining to your question.</p><p><br /></p><p>these are the 4 things that ive seen that effect value</p><p>1.rarity-how many were made? </p><p>2.condition-whats the coin look like, where does it grade?</p><p>3.desireability- walking half vs. key dates people love em both</p><p>4.professional grading -what company graded it? NGC/PCGS are standard</p><p><br /></p><p>if you want to collect to collect put togather a type set 1793-current like im doing. im skipping variations(i dont worry about arrow/motto on seated etc) and getting coins i can afford even if it means it has a hole that isnt more distracting than necessary (1820 and earlier). you will always find someone willing to buy a collection like this and its one of the neatest things you could ever show your kids and say &quot;this will one day be yours&quot;. make sure to tell them not to take it to a shop though, they get very anal and will tell you what some will pay considerably for are worthless. on a collection like this your kids should be able to get back at least what you paid.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>finally any time someone guarantees me a price increase on a collectible item, it usually cues me that they are full of it and i stop listening to them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
