<p>[QUOTE=&quot;adric22, post: 1590206, member: 38146&quot;]That may have answered the question.&nbsp; I do like to &quot;collect&quot; but I never buy any coin that I&#039;m not prepared to fill at least an entire tube with copies of it.&nbsp; So if I buy 1 gold-plated half dollar then I need to be prepared to buy 19 more of them.&nbsp;&nbsp; My reasoning is that it will be easier to sell off my collection in the future if I have many of the same item.&nbsp; I don&#039;t want to be stuck with a box full of one-off miscellaneous coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>So far everything I&#039;ve bought has been strictly for bullion value but I realize some things carry an inherent premium even though they have no precious metal.&nbsp; A proof coin is an example.&nbsp; Incidentally I never buy proof coins and I do not own a single one of them for that reason.&nbsp; I just wasn&#039;t sure about the plated coins.&nbsp; &nbsp; It seems many here have a dislike for them.&nbsp; Yet, I see plenty of people buying them on eBay.&nbsp; So obviously a market exists.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
