<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sledneck, post: 48462, member: 2847&quot;]Ok I admit I&#039;m a newbie, but is a &#039;key date&#039; coin just a certain year &amp; mint of a series that had low mintage numbers? I see coins all the time advertised a &#039;key date&#039; coins and I&#039;m not sure what to make of them. And Midas I think you&#039;re right about the price thing for certain coins over &#039;filler&#039; coins, but I think it really depends on what you are collecting for. I collect mainly because I&#039;m fascinated with the different kinds of coins found all over the world, and its interesting to note how coins reflect changing political attitudes in a country. I also collect so that when one of my grand kids become interested in coins (hopefully ONE of them at least will), I can pass on some cool stuff, same as my grandpa did for me. If I can make money in the process I won&#039;t shy from it, but I know in the long run I&#039;ll be (monetarily) poorer in the coin buying hobby.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
