<p>[QUOTE="dannic113, post: 1464538, member: 35203"]While MS67 is a nice grade and cert. #'s start falling off at MS67 and above a modern in 67 is worth $9-12 in the ebay/online/secondary market world. There are just way too many coins minted now a days. This isn't higher mintage 1958's here with millions made. We talking tens, hundreds of millions made. The only coins that may and it's a long shot MAY have any real substantial gain would be MS69 and 70's and PF70's but even then it always has been, is and will be what a buyer will pay for a "registry" quality coin. If you gotta have a MS69 cent then you may pay $300 most wouldn't. The only other gainers I see out current coin (barring anything bullion) are because of the economy as people stop buying clad and silver proof sets for example the mintages drop so values go up if and when demand goes up. The other long shot is if people stop collecting altogether we could see a drop like in the late 80's and 90's and prices could climb a bit in that regard but both would take 50-100 years before enough people start collecting and begin back dating. So you are right on your second point if people aren't interested prices drop or if an area is under appreciated or under valued. Like Bu and proof wheat cents and nickels sets, some type series. </p><p>Morgans to ancients are apples to oranges. Morgans IMO will always be popular how popular will determine if you are paying $75-85 for that MS64 or over $110. They appeal to silver lovers, classic U.S. coinage collectors, dollar collectors, general coin collectors, some antiques collectors, and even wild west lovers/ history buffs(for these types its about holding a coin that billy the kid could have robbed off a stage coach to cali. kind of thing). Ancients are a small niche market of collectors that appeal to ancient collectors, some world coin collectors, and the occasional bronze, silver, or copper collector depending on the composition of the ancient coin. Same reason I mention above that some type coins are under valued because honestly how many collectors do you know that have more than one or two half cents, three cent nickel pieces things like that? To me it's not so much lack of education but lack of knowing they even exist to collecting time and budget constraints of going that far back in coin history to start those collections.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
