Barry describes what we used to call the "bigger fool" theory in the coin business. Yes it's foolish to pay six grand for a proof 3-cent nickel (look it up), but there's sure to be someone willing to pay even more in a month or two.

Than the "fools" wised up, went away, or went broke, and now--20 years later--you can buy the same items for a fourth of what they used to run.

Patience, good people.
