Investing in Rare Coins
Throughout history, many coin collections have produced substantial
long-term profits for their owners. This is particularly true for coin collectors
of this century. Indeed, Harold Bareford reportedly purchased a collection of
U.S. gold coins for $13,832 in the early 1950s which was resold at auction in
1978 for $1.2 million. A more substantial collector, Louis Eliasberg, built a
collection that cost about $300,000. In 1982, it brought $12.4 million at auction.
This investment performance has been well documented by sources as
diverse as The Wall Street Journal, Consumer Reports and a host of industry
periodicals and guidesheets. What these reports have shown is that carefully
selected portfolios of rare coins have had a high rate of long-term
appreciation.
