<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 1636720, member: 4626&quot;]<i>Tends to</i> is not a guarantee.&nbsp; All US minted gold coins with mintages less than 5000 have done quite well <i>so far</i> (you left that important part out) <i>suggests</i> the trend <i>may</i> continue.&nbsp; These are all at best educated guesses based on similar coins.&nbsp; Past performance does not guarantee future results.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Well that&#039;s just my guess, but your belief to the contrary is just as much of a guess too (and I never said &quot;never,&quot; just that it wouldn&#039;t last over the long term.&nbsp; Even fads can make you money as long as you cash out before the hype dies, but that&#039;s very risky).&nbsp; We&#039;ll have to wait a few years before we know which one of us is right.&nbsp; For every coin you point to as an example of a coin that&#039;s gone up in value because of increased demand, I can find at least one counter-example where a coin of about equal rarity is still not valuable after even 50+ years because the demand never spiked and/or the supply was too high relative to demand.&nbsp; Want to bet your money that you&#039;re right, go ahead, but that&#039;s gambling, not investing.&nbsp; The gold coins will be worth at least what the gold they contain is worth so you have that much going for you at least.&nbsp; The ATBs, I&#039;m just not seeing it.&nbsp; Pessimists rarely become rich but they rarely go broke either; just keep that in mind.&nbsp; Like I said it&#039;s just gambling, and as long as you don&#039;t bet more than you can afford to lose, you&#039;re not too bad off if you&#039;re wrong.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
