am a beginner about rare coin. The following can be started to the site of Japanese rare coin. How is the fact?

u@The rare gold market is now staged on an annual rate of about 15%. Interest rates go up globally and rich men expect that a financial market will get confused. Then, it is supposed that all articles for sale are bought and followed regardless of a price. Consequently, the rare gold price will rise suddenly. Therefore, all specialists make it timid. Moreover, he buys the price of [$20 St.Gaudens gold MS65] without scarcity, it has become $1,120, and sale hope is not advanced at all. One sheet does not have an article for sale, either. It is the unusual situation where small or one sheet does not have a $1,000 set thing, either. As for the [$20 St.Gaudens gold coin] without such scarcity, dealings are usually conducted per 1,000 sheets. However, it is in the state where one sheet, not to mention 100 sheets, does not have an article for sale now, either@.v

Welcome to the Boards! Now, if I had any idea what your post meant, I would try to reply. However, all I can say is that rare coin prices have fluctuated in the past and will continue to do so. Any hypothesized relationship between interest rates and rare coin prices has not been supported empirically. Rare gold coin prices and gold, yes; interest rates, no.

I wouldn't be looking at rare gold coins as an investment. I think you can do better things with investment money. Having said that rare gold coins are my numismatic first love. They are beautiful, pieces of history and in my opinion are probably good candidates for holding there value and/or showing some modest appreciation over time.

Welcome aboard. It would seem the author of the comments is stretching a point.
While there is some truth in it, there is not as much truth in it as stated.

There is a tendency for specialists to overlook the obvious because of their perspective.
A coin collector or dealer does not see the same sort of shortage as an outsider. Every-
where the collector goes he sees coins.

It is apparent that there is a shortage of many collector coins and that prices are higher,
but in many cases even higher prices will bring coins out of storage and onto the market.
It is not so much a shortage of coins that makes the hobby so very exciting at this time;
It is the tremendous explosion in the numbers of collectors in this country and worldwide.

Have fun and good luck.

Cladking,
Has a great point, and it must be very hard for someone out side the U.S. market to buy and understand our coins and its marketplace. As many of you know reading my thread a few weeks looking for a good forum member dealer, Carl Wohlforth is selling off a big lot of my World collection. Below is a coin from Japan that I think is dated 1832?
Now put yourself in this gentlemans place and give me the Value, The date, the Mint, the rareity etc.

Maybe Yewecity can tell us?

I thought I would at least try to respond to the quoted passage, but I did not understand it, so I will simply fall back to timeless advice: before doing any investing, study, study, study, so you know exactly what it is you are getting yourself into. Also, before someone convinces you to invest a lot of money into something that may have liquidity problems for you, you might consider buying a very small amount as a "test case", hold on to it, then try and sell it and see for yourself such things as (i) whether you bought what you were told you were buying, (ii) whether your investment appreciated as you thought, (iii) whether there is legitimate demand in the market for your holding, etc.

Good luck.

Welcome aboard yewecity!

Why do I get the feeling that yewecity is not coming back and it was only a one time post.

I think by "sheets" he means "pieces" [ "mai" is the counter for thin things like coins).

Yohkoso!

wingedliberty · July 10, 2004 1:47PM

I thought he was talking about price sheets.

Yeah, that site is great. Unfortunately for the new poster here, it seems he's either having some problems using the forum, or he's not that fluent with english yet. A hobby I have is learning japanese..
(as well as coins). I'm going to a school soon that teachs japanese. Along with that, I've learned it off the internet. Also, my family and I are going to tokyo japan in a few years.
