<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Inspector43, post: 3938984, member: 89213&quot;]The US Mint is flooding us with too many new coins each year. That makes it very expensive and confusing. The normal attitude these days is instant gratification. That means we have to select what our specialty is and then buy most coins, because we want them now. Now most people don&#039;t want a coin unless it is in a slab. Instant gratification and being first is more important than the collecting. First Strike and First Release are more important attributes than filling that hole. A lot of people are just accumulating in the hopes that one of their selections hits pay dirt. I quit buying new coins from the US Mint for the same reason that I stopped buying new stamps from the USPS. The stamps are wallpaper and the coins are ballast. Not much fun anymore.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
