<p>[QUOTE=&quot;howboutatrade, post: 1136718, member: 10387&quot;]Jason,</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Welcome to coin collecting and your second purchase.&nbsp; Ignore the value comments by many, as the only question that matters is &quot;Are you happy with your purchase?&quot; and with the big smiley face at the end of your sentance, the answer is yes...so good deal.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If you are getting into the hobby as a collector that buys what they like and plan to hold onto it for long periods of time the price is not the important thing.&nbsp; If you are looking to make money in coins (very difficult to do by the way), there is a ton of learning and details that matter.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I started collecting 12 years ago and the first collection I put together was a set of Ike&#039;s.&nbsp; Like the size, feel, design of the reverse, and the variety allowed in a short period....and they are economical to learn on.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I now have my focus points...some people agree with, some people believe I am crazy...but you know what...I have fun and am now starting to get my children into the hobby....if I can accomplish that, giving them a lifetime of enjoyment, then it is a good thing.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Welcome to our wonderful hobby and enjoy it your way, not the way others say you should.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
