[QUOTE="illini420, post: 651790, member: 19423"]On this forum I think you could start a thread on the "open forum" and state that you'd want to buy a bag of 5,000 wheat cents (going rate around $200 per bag I think). Or that you want to buy "junk" 90% walking liberty halves or franklin halves or washington quarters, etc. (going rate around 10 times face value). Over on the CU forum I've had good luck with similar WTB (want to buy) posts on the "BST forum." Like the others said though, if you're new to this take the time to learn a bit about the coins and the coin market before blowing $2k. The redbook is well worth the $10-$15 and it may help you figure out what you'd like to buy when you are ready. Remember, it's not a race, depending on what you ultimately collect the coins have been around for decades or even centuries... they will be there too when you're ultimately ready to buy.[/QUOTE]
