It is really that bad, because the single best investment opportunity of early 2009 is "attempting to obtain rolls of 2009 Cents from your bank at face value, for resale on ebay"

I fail to understand the charm of collecting rolls of uncirculated coin. I certainly fail to understand the charm of paying ridiculous markups over face.
At this rate, it will be harder to find these coins in circulation than full rolls of BU/UN.

Ten years from now these rolls might be worth a dollar each. What is worse is that the dollar ten years from now will probably only buy what costs fifty cents today.

I would not pay that price. And I kinda hate to sell at that price. I have a feeling ignorance on this matter could ruin the hobby

I would not worry about it. If the home shopping channels have not ruined it by now, I do not think anything will.

Well I can see the mint saying you know they bought these Lincoln cents and they sold out for 8.95 was it? Maybe we are selling the proof and mint sets to cheap!

I suspect that the US Mint is in reality ebay.
