<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collector1966, post: 1077464, member: 17919&quot;]Sentimental feelings aside, you should also take into consideration that numismatic coins take a long time to make a return on your investment-- and sometimes they never live up to their potential. I&#039;ve been going through some old Coin books and magazines from the &#039;60s and &#039;70s, and am amazed that some of the &quot;hot coins&quot; back then have turned into duds. For example, in 1969, the 1968 proof sets were selling for as much as $12-13. Now they&#039;re only half that. Also, 1955-dated coins (pennies, dimes, quarters, halves) were all the rage back then, but now most of them are considered to be run-of-the-mill stuff in grades less than Unc. The 1950-D nickel and 1958 quarter are also coins that were considered to have a lot of potential back then but are now just a shell of their past glory.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
