[QUOTE="tlasch, post: 3475358, member: 27272"]This might sound like an odd suggestion, but I believe one to the best ways to get new collectors and retain those on a budget would be to create a poor persons collection guide (roadmap?). The criteria for this guide could be: Best grade possible for under $100 for each type of coin (while not able to include all coins and variations, I believe a list like this would spark intrigue). I believe the ground framework of the research could be, looking at total production of all years of each coin type, rather than searching by the actual year, or denomination, this guide would favor the actual design type. If you are like me, you shop on a budget, maybe its a comfort issue, maybe its an income issue. But you want to be able to collect history to some degree. Maybe I am ranting crazy talk, or maybe there already exists a dedicated "guide". Let me know your thoughts![/QUOTE]
