Canadian vs us dollar coins

[theekman]

The morgans/ peace dollars vs. the canadian 80% dollar coins to be exact.

Is there a premium for the canadian dollar coins? Because i know morgans and peace dollars usually have a nice premium usually around $5 a coin.

supply and demand...in this case especially demand. the more folk that want to collect a thing drive up the price of that thing based on its supply. more...by a factor of maybe 10... folk choose to collect U.S. coinage, prices go up. Canada also floods the market every year with all sorts of non-circulation silver, gold and commemorative coins, made exclusively for the collector market. these coins often have a nominal value..$1...$20...$100 etc. but the mint slaps a premium on them that doesn't keep its value 10 years down the road...and thus they revert to little more than bullion value. there is a lot more than my simplistic explanation, but these are the basics....condition, mintage and market.

nobody knows, its already at historical highs not seen in decades, so if you're looking to speculate you need to go someplace that the currency has not gone to for a long long time.
