Beware of overpriced "collectables"
Low prices on non-numismatic bullion coins, but that's just a loss leader to open the door to selling over-priced collectable coins. I purchased a recommended coin six months ago, that I now see selling at another reputable coin dealer for over $1000 less for the same coin with the same grade. Prices have not dropped $1000 this year. They say that you should invest with a 5-10 year time horizon, but you shouldn't start with a $1000 handicap. Buy the bullion coins online, but don't trust the salesmen who will call you with collectable "deals."
