coin fever to coin crazy?

You should do yourself a favor and slow down until you figure out what you want to collect and get good at grading and assessing coins. If you're like the rest of us when we started you're all over the map. And a year or two from now you'll look at a lot of the stuff you bought and wonder what in h*ll you were thinking!

The opportunity for wasteful spending...buying the wrong series, buying problem coins, etc...is enormous at first. Virtually everyone makes dumb, costly mistakes. You can minimize them by asking lots of questions here and by befriending a local dealer or an experienced collector.

It's still fun, no matter what! But no one likes to lose money or make silly mistakes.
Lance.
