I saw that this coin ships from Orlando FL. I have bought from this seller before and I don’t know him personally but I got his name when I purchased a Norfed Silver coin. I think he is actually from St Cloud which is southeast of Orlando Intl Airport (MCO).

With all the stimulus money creation, it seems inevitable that gold and silver will go up in price. I am curious about how the coin market will be affected. In particular, I am wondering if older series coins will rise faster than more modern series coins; if Bust series and Seated series will be more sought after than say Barbers or Morgans. Also, I am wondering how rarity will influence price. Will we have a lot of new collectors after bullion value or will we get new collectors who will want to collect variety coins that go after the rarities? It is a matter of understanding competition for the coins we love.
