<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 1506525, member: 4552"]There is some things you would have to consider prior to making that decision. For example how you purchase your coins. If on line, could hardly make a difference since almost all of what you mentioned are there. However, people that buy on line seldom include postage, shipping, insurance, lost in mail, fake coins sent, etc. If you purchase from local coin stores, you would be very limited to any and all of those. And the prices would be usually high. IF you frequent coin shows, eventually you could find almost anything for decent price. </p><p>Another consideration is how many coins make a set. For example there are very few 2 and 3 cent coins needed to make a set. Many more to make a Mercury Dime set. But then back to availability, so much depends on what you can find.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
