<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Rono, post: 248507, member: 6492&quot;]Hi clembo,</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Thanks for the suggestions.&nbsp; I&#039;ve read most and am still reading Travis and Bowers and everything I can get my hands on.&nbsp; I&#039;m more of a collector than an investor, but more of an investor than a speculator.&nbsp; With bullion, for example, having 3-5% is an investment . . . having more is speculation.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Anyway, I like your picks - particularly the V nickels.&nbsp; The 12-s is great and even higher grade 12-d have some room to run.&nbsp; I picked up an XF 1864L IHC back a year or so and it&#039;s been a great coin.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In my case, I&#039;m not looking to turn around a quick buck, but hold for the longer term as a solid store of wealth.&nbsp; At the same time, I&#039;ll probably increase my annual mint purchases to include the gold stuff which heretofore has been out of my price range.&nbsp; The anniversary sets were an easy pick and I bought 5 of the silver set and 10 of the burnished SAE&#039;s.&nbsp; So I&#039;ll always take advantage of a good deal.&nbsp; However, with mint stuff, I just try to buy a few of most everything and don&#039;t normally try to guess the aftermarket.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Key coins are easier but sleepers take a lot more knowledge.&nbsp; And that is what I&#039;m seeking.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>thanks,</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>rono[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
