<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BooksB4Coins, post: 1711238, member: 36230&quot;]While there are certain few cases where I would disagree with the &quot;do not ever&quot; advice, considering the OP is new, I wholeheartedly agree. Until he is knowledgeable/experienced enough to truly understand each individual problem coin, if he chooses to buy such coins he will almost certainly lose in the long run.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would also like to add that while it is important to not overpay, it is also wise not to fall into the deal mentality or place too much weight on price, especially with coins in your area of interest. There is a lot of dreck out there (including slabbed IMO) so take the time to find quality, even if it costs more. That said, at this point I do believe the best thing you could do is to either find a trusted and knowledgeable dealer to work with, or hold off on buying until you know more of what you&#039;re doing. While it may not be as fun to buy books or invest time learning as it is buying coins, in the long run you will likely be glad that you did; there is little worse than someday looking back and thinking of the money thrown away on bad buys.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
