<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 727696, member: 4552&quot;]Naturally no one really wants to make a bad investment but as you said, it&#039;s a hobby. Note all those charts? They really mean nothing if you are here for a hobby. The price you pay and/or what it is worth for a coin is really meaningless if you just enjoy this hobby as a hobby and great passtime. Also, something nice to pass on to others after we are gone and hopefully they too will pass them on as a family tradition. Any monitary gains in your coins values are then really meaningless. </p><p>I&#039;ve got some really old cars in really nice shape and people always ask how much are the worth. I tell them 0, don&#039;t know, don&#039;t care, since I&#039;m not selling them so they are just only worth how much I like them. </p><p>Ever see those people with model planes for flying. Some cost hundreds and even thousands of dollars and some just crash. Brings tears to thier eyes but those people come back over and over too. It is a HOBBY. If you constantly worry about charts of values, prices in the Red Book, The PCGS price guides, people on coin forums that constantly say of no real value, could lead to ulcers. </p><p>I&#039;ve been collecting coins for well over 60 years now and I now really don&#039;t care about coin values. Too little time left to worry about a bad investment.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
