[QUOTE="ambr0zie, post: 5145494, member: 80952"]When I started collecting, I wanted a complete collection - all the circulation coins from my country. This is quite difficult, but since our coin history started in 1867 it's doable at least in theory. Also banknotes, but having a complete collection was out of the question. As many as possible. There are still some missing - (the gold circulation coins, rare and expensive) and a small number of variations, also extremely expensive, but it's difficult to ask for more. I am also happy as I didn't expect to reach this stage. Like all the other collectors, I spend a lot of money on coins. The people who don't share this hobby think we're crazy :) But I try to have a ballance between the satisfaction on having a new coin/an upgraded coin and the financial effort. One of the missing coins in my collection costs about 1800-2.000 EUR in F-VF condition. Even if I find it tomorrow, I won't pay this price. It is highly unlikely to find it "by mistake". Having a missing coin (a key date but I have in my collection same KM number, 2 different dates) is not OK, but I wouldn't be happy to spend this sum. Ancients came in the right time. I was looking for a Trajan coin, as Trajan is a key figure in our history. So just discovered how beautiful and historically important are these coins. And of course, the price of the coins, along with the beginner's chance, made me very passionate about this new hobby.[/QUOTE]
