<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2004113, member: 19463"]When I was selecting candidates for my favorite coins page, I did take note of the relationship between cost and how much I like the coin. In that number were a couple of coins under $10 but that was unusual. I took more interest in the coins that cost a lot that did NOT make the list. You might think that in a collection of coins with about half of a percent being over $300 that all of those coin would be 'favorites' but there were even a couple that were in the top five price wise that fell out of the top 100. Part of me thinks I should sell those expensive losers but maybe someday my opinions will shift toward the mainstream and those coins will seem better to me. For the most part it is reassuring that we like the expensive coins more than the cheap ones. I regularly advise people not to pay extra for features that they do not understand. If I listened to my own advice, I might not buy as many coins or anything else as well.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
