Holiday weekend poll: How much are your coins worth?

RYK

While I do not believe coins are investment assets per se, they do compete for our capital. Excluding the equity in your home, business, or farm, and the value of other tangible assets, what percent of your wealth do you have tied up in your coin collection?

Russ

What is this word "wealth" of which you speak?

my sentiments exactly

RYK

Wealth--cash, stocks, bonds, mutual funds, limited partnerships, trusts, investment real estate, bullion, insurance cash value, etc.

Edited to add: retirement plans of all sorts

Slightly more than face value.

Coins are responsible for 100% of my poverty

Have your heirs use that argument with the Feds after your gone.

Very significant portion. I'm a believer! Then again, those Carlton Sheets disciples have 95% of their net worth tied up in foreclosed properties owned by the "banks." But they're "worth" $$ Millions according to the infomercials. But good ole Carlton just gets rich selling his books....I doubt he evens own any properties.

Coins are not a bad place to be at the moment.

what if one has no "wealth"?

I was wealthy once, but then I bought some coins.

That's x divided by zero...

If you have coins and no wealth, the denominator would be zero, the fraction would be infinity, so check the over 100% box.

Wow. Make it 100% and your Lincoln set could be 10 times better! You'd beat Stewart hands down!

I have less than 1/2 percent in coins.
