<p>[QUOTE=&quot;IdesOfMarch01, post: 2657340, member: 39084&quot;]While this appears to be true about modern coin collecting, I&#039;m not sure I&#039;d agree that it&#039;s an accurate characterization of ancient coin collecting.</p><p><br /></p><p>All things being equal, a collector will always try to buy the highest condition coin his/her budget permits.&nbsp; If you find an EF coin you&#039;re seeking, within your budget <i>for that coin</i>, it defies logic to buy a VF coin for the same price, or even less.&nbsp; But I think collectors of ancient coins like their hobby for fundamentally different reasons from collectors of modern coins, and while condition of those coins is an important factor, it&#039;s not an obsession.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
