<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WillieSutton, post: 82630, member: 3835&quot;]Although my path has been (while still doing the prior):&nbsp; stocks and bonds for forty years, long and short; to precious metal stocks off and on, long and short; to bullion about five years; to roll searching for a couple of years; potentially to numismatic collecting.&nbsp; I have yet to make my first purchase of the latter.&nbsp; Could take many years to acquire the basic knowledge, and then the learning never stops.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thus, the question: What do you think of the start-up strategy of buying one coin in every type group (primarily old U.S.), all slabed at the highest grade available in very common dates?</p><p><br /></p><p>While one learns, it would seem to be a way to obtain some great-looking coins at reasonable prices.&nbsp; A key date could be added upon availability along the way.</p><p><br /></p><p>Or, would that be a guaranteed way to overpay for every coin?</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve heard a lot of experienced folks say:&nbsp; Buy key dates.&nbsp; Buy the coin, not the slab.&nbsp; Etc.&nbsp; But what do you think of the above strategy?</p><p><br /></p><p>Willie[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
