Somewhere I read, when speaking of collectible coins, "all the good stuff is gone". What do YOU think?

It's not gone, it's just being held by collectors.

If that is true, I guess I have been buying "all the bad stuff" lately.

The "Good Stuff" is in the eye of the individual collector.

The really good stuff never shows up on dealer's websites or price lists because it's sold before they get a chance to list it.

 

If you are a student of numismatics and have read 4 decades worth of auction catalogs, you can definitely lend this statement some credence.

I bought a 1921s buffalo last show after two years of looking for the right coin. Full date and a nice crusty FINE. For me this is the GOOD STUFF.

every coin is owned by somebody. every coin must be sold by somebody eventually.

most all of the time and especially so in this current market

 

the good stuff gets sold/placed with want list customer's before it ever hits the website/price listing

I'm a little confused by the term "good stuff"? What does that mean?

I think I have heard that same quote for 35 years so obviously all of the great collections and registry sets that claim to have been built since then must all be figments of our imagination.

there are so many treasure coin findings in the world, so i'm sure that people will find some "good stuff" for collectable coins. it's just matter of time. don't warry the collectors will always have something special to collect...
