<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sjkazlow, post: 471449, member: 16191&quot;]Are you wanting to collect older or more modern coins? If you choose modern, your best bet to find valuable coins would be to look for errors.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Most modern coins won&#039;t be worth much more than face value, but there are those few errors that can raise the value quite a bit. For instance, the state quarters have&nbsp; several unique errors, plus the errors on all types of error coins.&nbsp; You just have to learn what these errors are, and how to recognize them. Once you do that, you just have to wait for one to come to you, and when it does, you&#039;ll have found that rare coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>A few weeks ago, I found a Wisconsin state quarter extra leaf error, see thread.&nbsp; <a href="http://www.cointalk.org/showthread.php?t=44028" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.org/showthread.php?t=44028" rel="nofollow">http://www.cointalk.org/showthread.php?t=44028</a></p><p>I had never really expected to find one, but I was just casually looking over some change I had gotten, and what do you know!<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>As for what to collect, I would do whatever you like the most!
