<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Valentinian, post: 2808956, member: 44316&quot;]Most recommend quality over quantity. For experienced collectors, I would agree, but not for beginners. You need to buy some coins to see what you enjoy owning. Don&#039;t buy lousy coins, but buy coins you like and are willing to learn about.</p><p><br /></p><p>My advice for beginners is to not buy &quot;I like it, <b>except</b> for ...&quot; coins. A coin does not have to be high grade to like it and enjoy it for a long time. But, if the first time you see it you think &quot;I like it except for the off-centering (corrosion, overcleaning, damaged eye, whatever)&quot; I think you will not grow to enjoy the coin (no matter the price). Rather, the flaw that bothered you at first will bother you more and more. Buy coins you have reason to like without &quot;except for&quot;.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
