    Jag,
    Everyone has differing opinions. Since no one has mentioned Franklin halves, I will. They are a great place to start as a collector- only 35 coins. can put together a complete set for $100 or so, and upgrade into uncirc mint state as your eyes and budget get larger for not much more than 3x that amount.
    Other than roosies, and Jefferson nickles, it is the least expensive US series (outside of the clad dollars).
