<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kirispupis, post: 8216084, member: 118780&quot;]My family has a long history of stupidity regarding coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>My grandfather started it, buying mint sets and commemoratives from the 1950&#039;s onwards. He had an entire room in his house devoted to displaying those coins, though sadly I never traveled to see it. When he passed, they were all sold at auction and from what I gather, didn&#039;t make as much as the family had thought.</p><p><br /></p><p>I emulated him by also buying mint sets and commemoratives for the last 20 years. When I chose to sell them to begin purchasing ancients, I learned first hand how bad an investment they were.</p><p><br /></p><p>Luckily, I also invested in real estate, and I more than made up for my numismatic deficiencies there. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
