<p>[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 1880212, member: 36230"]I am not trying to talk you into or out of this coin, and have only been generally suggesting that you to reconsider your approach with everything from your hopes to how you may view buying on ebay. This seller may be on the up-and-up, but you must understand that not all are, and since you're new, I personally feel there are better avenues for one to take in your situation. Earlier in this thread you mentioned money being a concern, and even if this coin turned out well for you, it does not mean the next one will; the game you're looking to play is a lot harder than it may seem. The point is that there is little reason to rush into your collecting, so why not take your time to study, learn, talk to people, and view as many coins as you possibly can while allowing tastes to develop without emptying your pocket. Generally speaking, this is not a cheap hobby and I've seen too many needlessly bury themselves because, among other reasons, they jumped too high too quickly.</p><p><br /></p><p>As the other gentleman said, there is nothing wrong if you like it and/or like the looks of similar coins, but again, since you're new you must realize that your tastes are likely to change.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
