[QUOTE="Morgan1878, post: 564283, member: 17869"]In an inflationary environment, both the intrinsic value [I]and [/I]the collectible value go up and in the case of rarer issues, the price increase due to rarity far exceeds the percentage increase of the metal it's made of. If you happen to own a collection during an inflation spike, you can make money not only on your rare issues, but also on the "melt grade' stuff that has no collectible value, but a higher commodity price. There are a number of reasoned forecasts that indicate that to get out of the present recession will take about a 3-4% inflation rate in order to re-invigorate the economy. At this point in time, we're early in the game. However, at some point say the 1st or 2nd quarter of 2010, we could start to see the inflationary side effects from the government stimulus with positive benefits for collectors of coins, art and other rarities.[/QUOTE]
