<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 2362426, member: 15929&quot;]The very HEART of Numismatics is in saving each piece of history that coin collectors come across.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately, that &quot;heart&quot; is being pierced by terms such as &quot;market&quot;, &quot;Slabbed&quot;, &quot;resale value&quot;, etc. None of which address the collector and ALL of which address the coin &quot;business&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>If everybody saved every single large cent that was ever made, then there would be a very small market for Large Cents. BUT, the fact of the matter is that not every body did. As such, many have been lost or badly damaged. What was once common, is now collectible.</p><p><br /></p><p>In 100 years, if we&#039;re still around, that 2015 D Blue Ridge Quarter could very well be the Finest Known provided everybody takes the advice of the &quot;Market Masses&quot; by just spending it because it has no value. It has &quot;value&quot; to YOU which is the only thing that actually matters to a Coin Collector.</p><p><br /></p><p>Nobody really knows what will happen in the future because if they did, then the mintage of 1995-W Proof ASE&#039;s would be a helluva lot higher!</p><p><br /></p><p>Signed, A sassy, argumentative, and condescending old Fart.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
