[QUOTE="gbroke, post: 1586025, member: 22585"]I also collect some foreign coins. Sometimes you just need a break from the U.S. coins. I get sick of looking at Jefferson's ugly mug. Since I am a raw collector, foreign coins are generally a better option since they usually aren't certified. Unlike U.S. coins, just because it isn't in a slab, doesn't mean it's a problem coin (like a lot of U.S. collectors think). My foreign collecting interests are German Empire (1871-1918) emphasis on the silver 1 Mark, and German Federal coins (1949-1990), emphasis on the silver 5 Mark. Also Canadian large cents. All those I mentioned are very reasonable in pricing. I always recommend them to anyone looking to get into some foreign collecting.
