Message:: [QUOTE="AncientJoe, post: 1760694, member: 44357"]I have an "A" collection and a "B" collection. The average price of my "A" coins is 10x that of the "B" set and while the less expensive coins are still appealing to me, they are in a different class. While not always true in every collection, my B coins are relatively replaceable compared to the A coins, so I consider them to be the "first to go" if I wish to trade up. As everyone has finite funds, the opportunity cost is important to take into account when adding coins to a "B" collection. They are individually less expensive but add up to an appreciable sum, perhaps using funds which would be better suited to a single, larger purchase. Additionally, a single coin is easier to sell than a dozen - yes, there are fewer potential buyers, but you only need one rather than doing the legwork for many more. Hope that helps![/QUOTE]
