<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1875971, member: 112&quot;]Collecting gold is a different animal. Not only is it usually more expensive in a general sense, it has a whole different set of rules, a different knowledge base. Copper, silver, gold, they&#039;re all different. And there are different things you have to learn for each one. But in a way copper and silver are easier because they are the most popular, the most widely collected. So there is a wider knowledge base, more books, more articles, more knowledgeable people than you find with gold. And not only are the gold coins more expensive as a general rule, the books about them are often more expensive as well because there simply aren&#039;t as many of them to be found. And that applies not only to the number of books written, but the the number of copies printed for each book. And any time you have a smaller number of things, it usually cost more.</p><p><br /></p><p>I used to specialize in collecting world gold. And that all by itself is a different animal than collecting US gold. And I was especially fond of hammered gold, yet another huge difference. And if you think books on US gold are hard to find you should try finding books on that, especially those written in English. </p><p><br /></p><p>But as to your question Dave, what series is the best to collect ? Only you can define that largely because only you know you define &quot;best&quot;. I can guarantee you that what&#039;s best for me or best for somebody else is not what&#039;s best for you. So you decide what you want, how you define &quot;best&quot;, and I&#039;ll try to help you figure out how to get started going down that path <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
