  Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

  I didn't know that Brent Pogue was viewing this as a collection hedge fund for the past 15 years.
  
  Wouldn't the totality of the Eliasberg, Garret or other huge collections of the past 125 years (if valued today) be as great a value as the Pogue collection?

  Liked the video.
  
  It must be an older video due to the gold labels.

  The only problem when viewing a great collection like this is when you look at your own coins, they look like CR*P!!!

  Sounds like a great excuse to tell the wife for buying all those killer coins.
