Here for modern coins that, I think, have investment potential. Shhh don't tell though.

This is a continuation of the thread that was started about a week ago. We were talking about ordering mint sets and sending in a handful of coins to try to get a few top population for grade. If you order 10 mint sets (~$30 per set with shipping) that's $300. If you submit 2 coins from each set that will add on an additional $15 per coin minimum, that adds an additional $300. So we are up to $600.

For just a little bit more you could by a mint state First Spouse gold coin. I think these are the real sleepers of the modern commemorative series. Consider that several so far have had mintage numbers under 2000!!! Not 2 billion, 200 million, 2 million but 2 thousand. The grey sheet on the MS L. Garfield first spouse is 1425 bid, 1525 ask. For VanBuren's Liberty its roughly $1100 mint state or proof.

Time will tell...
