<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Prime Mover, post: 1543347, member: 38783&quot;]Modern coins I feel are a great place to start, and which is what I&#039;m focusing on now (though I find myself leaning towards varieties and errors instead of just general coins).&nbsp; It&#039;s got relatively easy price entry for people to start, and a lot of coins can be found with general good eye appeal which is what I think gets folks interested first until they start developing a general love for the hobby.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, as to what Doug said, my modern coins now will be &quot;old&quot; to my kids when they get them, and hopefully they can continue on to their kids and so on, building more history and stories as they go along.&nbsp; If I&#039;m not building my collection now, they may wonder &quot;why didn&#039;t grandpa just buy rolls of &quot;cheap&quot; coins when he was a kid&quot;.&nbsp; I often wish&nbsp; my parents had started building their collection earlier, as they grew up in the post-depression era and I could only imagine the amount of 40&#039;s, 50&#039;s and 60&#039;s coins I could have had which now are quite well sought after.&nbsp; Unfortunately the collection was started just around 1970 and while there&#039;s plenty of coins, I&#039;m now trying to go backwards as much as my budget will allow.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
