<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 1473642, member: 24633&quot;]Welcome to the neighborhood, Kyle!</p><p><br /></p><p>Since you&#039;re only 17 and just starting in numismatics, I don&#039;t recommend that you try to work on a complete set of Morgans, at least for the time being. You see, there are about a dozen coins that, even in AU grades, could easily cost you $75,000. If you like the look of the Morgans, there would be nothing wrong with building an initial set representative of each mintmark - Philadelphia, San Francisco, New Orleans, Carson City and Denver (1921 was the only year produced in Denver.) The only caveat I would offer is that you buy only Morgans certified by either NGC or PCGS. There are just too many raw, problem coins out there and there are unscrupulous sellers more than willing to take your money and run. If you were to work on a mintmark set in, say, MS64, you can get almost all of them for less than $100 each with the exception of a CC. An 1882-CC would cost you about $150.</p><p><br /></p><p>Someone mentioned the Ike Dollars, and I think this is a good idea. It only takes 32 coins to complete a Dansco album, and it would only cost you about $200, total, for uncirculated specimens.</p><p><br /></p><p>As others have said, there is no one way to collect coins, and you can build whatever kind of set you choose. </p><p><br /></p><p>Good hunting!</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
