<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikenoodle, post: 1181963, member: 307&quot;]I would recommend that you collect what you really itch to collect.

And it might or might not be, the problem is does it make you as happy?</p><p><br /></p><p>You say that the 2¢ pieces are expensive and that you&#039;ll probably never complete a set. I say you never know. A lifetime pursuit can be extremely rewarding but they don&#039;t happen in a few years, they happen over many years. Some of the pieces that you may not feel &quot;attainable&quot; at this point may become more so when you&#039;re older. Give that idea some thought.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you really want to complete something sooner, I would suggest Peace Dollars. It&#039;s a short set. There are no major rarities and you can collect them in a range of grades. MS-63s are readily available. Franklins are really really hard to grade and are not a series for the novice if you&#039;re going to try to buy raw uncirculated coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just my 2¢[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
