After a decades long price decline on classic gold commemoratives, it looks like the prices are now inflecting with strong demand. Time will tell if this is sustainable. Anyone else noticing this trend?
Here is an example. Price history of 1922 Grant with Star $1 gold in MS-66. Quite dramatic.
Agreed with macmercury - people are buying up virtually all asset classes to keep out of cash. In my experience, gold bumps and inflationary periods do bring fresh blood into the hobby, some of whom stick around when the music stops.
Forgive me if I'm missing something but I don't see the inflection you speak of in that example. The line continues to move downward with no hint of popping back up even into 2020, in fact it even looks like the price is dropping in an even shorter time as recent years go by
Depending on the geographical location, the chart serve as only a reference for future forecast. I know the dollar isn't buying much these days, it cost more to buy the same things I used to, like food.
I hate to own that $2.50 1926 Sesquicentennial gold piece if I had bought it at its height.
