<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1123037, member: 112&quot;]US coins are not any more collectible than any other coin. But as a general rule they are more expensive than most of the coins of other countries. I say general because there are plenty of exceptions to that rule. I in fact quit collecting US coins after doing so for my entire life, back in 2002. I saw where the prices were headed and decided it wasn&#039;t worth it anymore. So I switched to collecting world coins, specializing in world gold. With world gold, coins of comparable rarity to US coins were a fraction of the price and yet had twice the history and more beautiful designs.</p><p><br /></p><p>But by doing so, and by advertising the fact, a lot of other folks started doing the same thing. And prices moved up. Slowly at first, then they skyrocketed. Until now, today, many world coins are just as expensive, and some even more so, than US coins. I became my own worst enemy in regard to the coins I was collecting.</p><p><br /></p><p>It seems that popularity is something that is easily affected and with it come wild swings in prices.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
