<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cherd, post: 1470354, member: 24754&quot;]I ultimately collect coins as a hobby because I enjoy the search and have a sincere appreciation for my collection. But one of the real benefits of collecting coins as a hobby is that, while you can spend a lot of money, you aren&#039;t really &quot;spending&quot; it in the traditional sense. I&#039;m willing to spend money on coins, and probably spend more than I should sometimes, because I know that what I am buying will retain value. I certainly don&#039;t consider my coins as investments, and do not want to approach collecting from an investment perspective. However, I do consider my coins as something analogous to a savings account. It&#039;s a win-win situation if I can enjoy the pursuit of coins, enjoy owning and displaying them for a number of years, and then recoup the value at some point down the road. I want my collection to focus on coins that are likely to increase in value or maintain their value as a means of ensuring that this will be the case.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
