Presidential Dollar Coin Investment Value

I seen a similar advertisement in the Milwaukee Sunday paper from the World reserve Monetary exchange.

Free roll of Presidential uncirculated dollars
Except free is $28 for a roll of about 12

Go back and read some previous "topics" & "threads".....it has been discussed here intensively and the OVERWHELMING opinion is NO.....they won't ever be worth much. And furthermore, once they've been "gold washed" or "platnum washed" the coating is SO MINISCULE that it can barely be found in "parts per billion" testing.....these people should be sued ! ....So....your right when you say the "the value has been lessened"........most 'here' would say "VALUE-LESS" once that has been done to ANY coin.
But generally most hardcore collectors are staying away from the Presidential dollars in ANY form.....some are keeping the coin albums for their children and grandchildren for purely historical or "planting a seed" of coin collecting......but definately NOT for any future coin value or investment profit gain. Pure Silver or Gold coins.....or Classic coins would be a much better idea in the " Coin World" than those would EVER be !.......
Purchasing a 2008 "Silver Proof Set" from the U.S. Mint website will include a "proof set" of these Presidential dollars too......so ....if you still have a mind....you could get each year that way in proof condition......and you can always get an uncirculated roll of them from your bank each time a new President comes out for your coin albums, etc.

Sorry about the redundancy, eaglefoot. I searched, but the key words I searched did not turn up any similar topics.

Anyway, thanks for the valuable info! I'll continue to collect them myself just for fun then, and not worry about the investment value.

I came up with this idea while I was on the can...
First buy up a few of them and put them in a safety deposit box.
Then, buy every one that you can get your hands on and DESROY THEM!!
This will increase rarity and and give you a small fortune.

The only thing is that you would be defacing money and it would probably take about 80 years to get your hands on all that coinage
And you will probably lose more money that you use to acquire them than the few will be worth that you stashed.

OK, now that was thought through, just buy yourself a roll from your bank at face and hide it in a shoebox in your closet and pass it down generation to generation. And don't waste time with the novelty coins!

So much for that idea. Well, back to the drawing board. I wonder how many of the copper 43s were destroyed?

All of these new coins including the State Quarters and the pres dollars are intended to increase the number of collectors, so you know that a lot more people will have full sets of State Quarters and pres dollars then lets say a low mintage date of a regular quarter that the average person just spends everyday, so my opinion is that these collections will not increase in value as much as normal circulation coins will.

I agree that NBC, QVC, and other coin shows are trash. But I am new to the hobby, and learn a lot of useful info. from the shows, but you have to listen to the bull to get the info. On another note, coin country TV is taped 30 minutes from my home, so I hope I run into those guys one day, that would be interesting! The only deal I have seen is on AANTV, 1986 Silver eagles in MS-69 for $34.00 so I did buy one.
