Would you buy $5 G Modern Comms to complete set?

I need a few more $5 gold comms to finish my PR69 set. But it is hard to shell out 250.00 for the 1995 torch and 300 for the WWII etc.
Would you spend your money on somthing else or try and complete the set. It looks like the Modern comms have seen better days.

I just started with this years SF commem and have no intention of filling in the prior years and have a hard time thinking about filling in the presidential wives $5 coins coming soon, which will probably be categorized as commems and be a necessary evil to acquire.

When were those better days, by the way? Most of the rare $5s are skyrocketing in price, and even the most common ones are being dragged up with the price of gold. Gone are the days where one could buy common $5s for around melt (or even below!).

Uh...I take it you don't own a greysheet.

I have bought a couple of modern proof $5's recently at melt. They are tough to find this cheap though. I just started doing this, so I don't know if it was very very easy in the past. Sounds like it was...

He needs a lot more than two. It's a daunting, but rewarding task -- just don't expect to finish it as fast as you did the 50c and $1 coins.

<< <i>Rewarding but profitable in the future or could the moeny be spent better elsewhere? >>
Of course the money can be spent better elsewhere. Collect for the enjoyment of it, not for any hopes of future profits.
