<p>[QUOTE=&quot;doug444, post: 1476664, member: 38849&quot;]For future reference, I&#039;ve been collecting coins since 1951, and I&#039;ve seen a lot of hot investment trends come and go, from 1955-S pennies to Proof Sets to BU rolls to Franklin Mint concoctions, etc.&nbsp; If you go back and calculate in inflation-adjusted dollars, NONE of them sells for more today than they did when they were &quot;hot&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>One non-numismatic website to study, <a href="http://www.shadowstats.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.shadowstats.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.shadowstats.com</a> -- you can&#039;t buy coins in a vacuum, you have to look at economic conditions too.&nbsp; Two years from now, if hyper-inflation were running at 10% a month, I could make arguments BOTH WAYS whether coins were likely to prove a good safe-harbor investment.&nbsp; Also see <a href="http://www.gata.org" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.gata.org" rel="nofollow">http://www.gata.org</a> --[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
