Instant Gratification Coins

The Title says it all. Rarely will we recieve instant gratification other than knowing you bought a slabbed coin that will produce gains quickly. Many purchases should be considered investments with patience. I listed a few in prior posts where the gain was practically immediate. Finding those requires some past research. The time to grab them is limited so don`t waste too much time pondering, if past comparisons indicate it. There are multiple factors to keep in mind. Demand, eye appeal and availability. Unlike Government programs, coin finds have no consequences. They are sound investments if good research is done. Always keep in mind that demand and availiability are the two main factors. If a coin is rare but there is no demand you may be playing with money tied up. This is why I study trends with newer issued U S Mint coins. Your best buys will usually be within a "one year" time period of mint issue. Be sure you know exactly what you are buying. Variations with slabbed coins can make a huge difference with each year, the gradding company, labeling and the grade of the coin. You can read on on prior posts. I highly recomend reading all posts before purchasing.
