<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 54554, member: 3011&quot;]This thread made me look at the commemoratives, modern and older, really for the first time.&nbsp; They&#039;re pretty nice and have an interesting variety, so I&#039;m considering starting a collection, or at least acquiring a couple to take a closer look.&nbsp; It looks like it would be a nice break from the usual date and mintmark or type collections.</p><p><br /></p><p>But once again, the market looks pretty efficient, and nothing appears to be a bargain taking condition and rarity into account.&nbsp; Darn collectors don&#039;t miss a thing.&nbsp; Some of the $5 gold coins look like they are priced to be a good alternative to a gold bullion coin investment however.</p><p><br /></p><p>Interestingly, the modern slabbed commems seem more expensive than the coins in the&nbsp; original mint packaging, even though the unslabbed coins are probably in extremely good condition.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
