Now Kyra you must admit those SILVER EUROS are really cheap compared to U.S. silver, at least some of the euro nations keep things affordable. There are a few that gouge just like the U.S. Mint! None the less, for some reason or another, my dealer keeps telling me NOT to stop collecting those silver euros now that I have such a great start! Guess time will tell?

Amen! If I could just get this crystal ball to work, it would make my life as a dealer so much easier.

Do you remember the $2 Star note set that the BEP put out last year? I ran around saying "Never", and low and behold these sets went through the roof. I said "No Way" on the wildlife series medals that the mint put out. Again, I missed that boat.

However, there have been some no-brainers along the way.

2001 Buffalo Dollar.
1999 Proof Sets.
1997 Jackie Robinson $5 Gold
2000 Library of Congress Bi-metallic $10 gold

What amazes me most is that the U.S. Mint cannot figure it out. They seem to hit and miss more than we do.

I ordered 8 Legacy sets 2 at a time. I only ever got the first two as there was nobobdy at home when they delivered the remaining 6. I tried to get the mint to re-send them but they informed me that the issue was no longer available. Now I know they will go through the roof the same thing happened to me on the 1999 silver and regular proof sets.

ND I am amazed to hear the $2 star note from last year did any thing at all? I got the big brochure from the BEP and thought to myself, "What a waste of good money"! And NOW you tell me they have actually done something? Guess we have a whole new world of collectors helping stoke the fire?

I like the satin finish coins and they should have good
demand for years but with a likely mintage around two
million they will not be scarce for many years. Gems
from mint sets with and without the satin finish may be
interesting speculations. Those without the special
finish may be especially interesting since gems are of-
ten extremely scarce from circulation.
Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps.
