<p>[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 2162648, member: 36230"]There is no reason to be sorry, but might I respectfully suggest you out all thoughts of buying any type of rolls (other than at face) or really any coins in general and instead purchase even a basic numismatic reference? The RedBook, even an older edition, would make for a fine starting point, allowing you to learn some of the basics before removing any cash from your pocket. Most every new collector will purchase coins they later regret.It is simply part of the game, and you will lose money as well, but doing what is reasonably possible to cushion the blow would be a wise choice on your part.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is not directed solely at you, sir, but for whatever reason, there is a very high percentage of new collectors who seemingly fail to grasp the factthat knowledge is key to this hobby. The same people who would never even think of walking into a garage believing they can pull one over on the mechanic will basically do just that with coins. Don't fall into the deal mentality trap as it will be you, not the experienced seller, that will pay in the end. There are no free rides here.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
