<p>[QUOTE=&quot;moneyer12, post: 1089178, member: 28233&quot;]a general question is &quot;why do you collect coins&quot; is it just for the monetary value of the piece as an investment? or is it because you find the coins interesting and pleasing to look at? personally i enjoy the latter and it makes absolutely no difference where the coin has originated from, for me one of the most beautiful coins ever issued was the french 20 franc mont san michel tri metal, the artwork in the relief is stunning and it is still one of my favourite coins in my collection although the value is pretty low. on the other hand the gothic crown from the UK is both beautiful and worth quite a lot of money as well, but to me both coins have an equal place in my collection. as for US coins the only set i havfe deliberately collected is the state quarters programme which i found really interesting and in some cases nice to look at, but as for the rest of the US coins i look at them as part of my collection exactly the same as my set from st helena and ascension.......[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
