<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jaelus, post: 2755147, member: 46237&quot;]Don&#039;t overlook world coins. A good way to save money is to collect a world set.</p><p><br /></p><p>For example, I was able to buy a raw 1915 Austrian corona in MS66 for $18. For the equivalent US coin (a 1915 Barber quarter) I&#039;d have to pay <i>a hundred times that</i> for an example in the same grade. The mintage for the Austrian corona is a bit higher, but they aren&#039;t much more common in that grade than the Barber would be. The difference is all to do with supply and demand.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, study numismatics extensively; especially what you intend to specialize in. Specializations will let you cherry pick effectively and save a lot of money. You can even buy coins for resale and help to offset a lot of your collection costs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
