[QUOTE="Phil Ham, post: 1800668, member: 5787"]I call a dollar a buck and a cent a penny. I call my wife, honey, but that isn't the name on her license. Common things that I often here from collectors that I don't totally agree with include: (1) Buy the book before the coin. I'm crediting this one to the guy who writes the coin books. It seems like a good thing but I forgot much of what I read so it doesn't really help. I learn quicker from seeing, touching, oogling, and sometimes drooling. (2) Buy the rarest coin in the set first. What drug was this person taking? Obviously, the expensive ones. (3) Buy the best quality coin that you can afford.
