<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ms333, post: 2172748, member: 74879&quot;]First I&#039;ll give a little background about myself. I am 14 years old and I live in the US in Illinois. I have been interested in coins for a couple of years now, but I never really had a collection yet. Actually, I made a Cointalk account back in 2011 I think but I forgot the password so I created a new account <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think coins are a very cool hobby because they are an important part of history and are very easily obtainable and are just plain cool <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.</p><p><br /></p><p>Back in 2011 or so I started a very small wheat penny collection comprising of a handful of common dates and that is all. Would it be a good idea to try to finish that collection? My budget is super small (actually, all the wheats I have were compiled out of several 3$ wheat rolls) so would pursuing a different coin be more beneficial economically? </p><p><br /></p><p>I think I decided not to collect silver coins because of the price, but I have noticed that silver is only worth about half as much now in 2015 compared to 2011-2012 (IIRC silver was around 30~35$ an ounce?). </p><p><br /></p><p>Lastly, I was wondering if the prices generally of coins have increased since about 2012? Thanks![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
