Success or failure rests on no one‘s shoulders but my own. In the short time that I have been operating, I have made many misâ€" takes and have learned many things the hard way, but this can only lead to future success. My children started their own coin colâ€" lections, and I think that collecting people and to making many new friends. I also think that the day is not far off when coin prices will be listed daily as stocks and bonds are now, because the amount of money invested in this business runs into many millions of dollars, and will continue to grow. Coins have a builtâ€"in safety factor, that is, that properly chosen items will have a low enough mintage or availability factor that wild price fluctuations up or down are almost impossible. This safety factor does not exist in the speculative stock market. Also, the quantity of coins avajlable, particularly the scarcer ones, drops each year because of fires and other accidental happenâ€" ings. In addition, Canadian coins are very underpriced when comâ€" pared to United States coins, which means that the Canadian collectors and investors are in for a very profitable future as the Americans become even more interested in our coinage."
