Seated Dollar Values & Mintages: Great Investment

#1 Unread post by Daniel »

If you collected Seated Dollars good for you, and I would like to know, so chime in. It's a wonder that entry level collectors can still buy a US Seated Dollar. If you look at the mintages and calculate the survival rate, you're talking about coins that number in a few hundred and no more than a few thousand.

Check out the low mintages compared to the values Seated Liberty Dollar

Sorry, thought I would resurrect this thread/post.

I was just scrolling through some old threads and "Great Investment" caught my eye. As I mentioned in an earlier thread; (for me anyway) the words "coins" and "investment" in the same sentence never seems to pan out. (You're the exception Daniel)

Not that I'm focused on investment or profit, I'm not. No question, I've lost money in this hobby. It's the joy of collecting and finding the coins I need and like, that gives me the satisfaction... Making it all worth it for me.

So now that you opened an old can of worms, is this the next "Post your blank here" post? 😉

Well, I don't really think I opened a can of worms. It's just my opinion.

But I am open to suggestions regarding the: Post Your "Blank" Here thread. 😁

Only in my dreams. I never had that kind of cash to try a collection of them. Admittedly even as a kid I wanted to collect them though.

I kind of wish I had one of these in this "inherited" coin stash I'm sifting through. The oldest thing so far has been an 1884 Morgan Dollar, but that's not too impressive it seems... LOL

If anyone has one of these, can we see pics? At the very least, I want to see!
