I have a friend and she collects different kind of coins and paper money. Whenever she sees silver coins, she'll look like a lottery winner. I just got curious and need some answers, hahaha..
People loves to collect certain coins as a hobby and sometimes an investment. And if you have that right knowledge about the value of those rare $$$, it could lead into something... Thousands? Millions?

I have always had trouble with that because what's the use of a coin being worth thousands of dollars if you can't find a buyer willing to pay that price for it? This is why I have never collected coins.
My daughter likes to collect different coins from around the world. She was going through her collection a couple weeks ago and telling me how much she was finding that each coin was worth as a collector's item. I just laughed because it does her no good if she doesn't have a buyer.
So bottom line, as an investment collectibles are not really worth anything unless you find someone who is willing to pay your price.
