<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 3786900, member: 101855&quot;]I love the Draped Bust design too. Back in the early 1970s I purchased an 1805 dime in high grade, now in an AU-58 holder. That got me hooked. I have collected those coins by type and for the half dimes and dollars, by date.</p><p><br /></p><p>My advice would be to spend more money on one coin than spreading out your funds on low grade pieces. When I was collecting these pieces, I used only buy one or two coins a year. That takes discipline, but I’m glad I did that way.</p><p><br /></p><p>At the risk have having people claim that I am trying to upstage the opening posts, here is that 1805 dime, which now my avatar her. Coins like this are “eye candy” for me.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1011182[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1011183[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
