[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1207484, member: 15929"]I don't. Matter of fact, I'm kinda glad I got in on it since it's numismatic history. As with any modern coin or variety, time will dictate the importance or value of the piece. Yes, prices have dropped considerably since their initial "discovery" and yes, it was a well managed promotion but that os true of ANY popular coin that gets put on the market. The real significance of the variety is yet to be appreciated by seasoned collectors and probably will not be for uite some time. Also, high grade examples still command relatively high premiums over and above their non-variety counterparts. Need I remind folks that it wasn't too awfully long ago that 3 Legged Buffalo Nickels were relatively inexpensive. I picked up a complete raw set of Buffalo's which included the 3 legger and all the Type 1 and Type 2 1913's for $279 back in 1977. Should any of the major album manufacturers decide that the high/low leaf Wisconsin Quarters be included in a State Quarter albums, interest will definitely increase. It may not happen in my lifetime but it could happen in your's which is what coin collecting and numismatics is all about.[/QUOTE]
