<p>[QUOTE="Clay1582, post: 1050477, member: 28187"]I just got home from one of the coin stores here in Shreveport. I was getting worried about this new adventure because the first place i went last week didn't really seem like they had any interest in helping me get started. The guy that helped me was awesome. I told him about my grand plan for getting set of morgans and peace dollars, he told me what it would take and how much money i'd be looking at spending for some of the key dates. After we chatted about that for a little while i asked him if he had any suggestions for another set that might be able to be completed a little easier just to get me started and feel like i've accomplished something. He first suggested the Franklin half's, but they just didn't really strike me as something i wanted to put the time and effort into. I finally settled on Mercury Dime's so I bought a 1942 dime in addition to a few supplies etc. All in all, he spent an hour or more telling me the history of the different coins and just helping me get my feet wet with collecting in general. I'll definitely be back.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
