Now what is it you like to collect? Once you find it, then maybe you can give you a push in the right direction. Just learn your series, and how to grade that series, and you should be fine! I think the biggest suggestion I can really give though is HAVE FUN Welcome to cointalk __________________ From The Desk Of, -T$ (Kokapowan Tribe Leader) http://www.tmoneyeagles.webs.com/   07-05-2009, 02:11 AM   #3 (permalink) andy21us Coin Hoarder     Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: TX Posts: 1,139 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by tmoneyeagles Well my suggestion to you is collect what you like to collect.

Morgans seem to be selling well.

After that look up the history of the coin. If you are leaning toward a particular coin then start thinking of collecting that coin. I know that coins involves some homework . It's alot of fun. -JefLinc   07-06-2009, 02:50 AM   #7 (permalink) De Orc P & R COMMISSAR     Join Date: Oct 2005 Location: London. UK Posts: 8,131 My Mood: Hi Glen welcome to CoinTalk, now I need to ask are you going to collect for your own pleasure or will it be for financial gain? If it is for pure gain then just buy silver/gold as near to spot as you can regardless of what it looks like LOL and who knows you might buy something that makes you sit back and think OO that is lovely If it is for pleasure then go for something that will bring you enjoyment __________________ My Notes 1176 to date 02/06/09 http://www.banknotebank.com/?collection=De-Orc My Coins 2168 to date 02/06/09 http://www.omnicoin.com/?collection=De-Orc   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
