[QUOTE="Spark1951, post: 3448448, member: 90692"]You got some great suggestions from Patrick M and Kentucky, but I must warn you...this hobby is [I][B]very [/B][/I]addictive. When you first start out it seems you have to save/accumulate everything you come across. As you learn more, like grading on basic levels (G - MS60) and terminology, you begin to discover the true nature of coin values. For instance, back in 1962 I was still getting Indian Head Cents from circulation. They were for the most part G4, verging on VG8. They were worth 5 cents back then. Now, 57 years later, they are worth $2. The point is...they really weren't worth keeping for all those years, but the thrill of finding them fueled my interest in the hobby as a whole, and gave me new perspectives toward all the other denominations and it snowballed from there to include foreign countries as well. I honestly hope your interest is fueled and that you gain new perspectives as you learn. Welcome to CoinTalk!...Spark[/QUOTE]
