<p>[QUOTE=&quot;satootoko, post: 31815, member: 669&quot;]Welcome aboard Prethen.I&#039;m afraid I have to pretty much agree with Dan on his main point, which I would phrase as &quot;Buy the book before the coin&quot;.&nbsp; I think his heart was both pure <b>and</b> understanding, and he was trying to assist you, not to brutally criticize you.</p><p><br /></p><p>You are not talking about junk box 3-for-50¢ coins, and you simply aren&#039;t going to get enough information about them from a few postings on this type of forum to make you an instant expert.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not very much into U.S. coinage, and don&#039;t ever expect to increase the size of my Indian Head collection beyond the two that I got as part of multi-coin transactions, so I can&#039;t give you any useful advice about them, <i>except</i> always &quot;Buy <b>and study</b> the book before you buy the coin&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>After you learn more about them, you may regret not having acquired this particular group, but wouldn&#039;t that be better than buying them and then regretting that you had heavily overpaid for junk?&nbsp; Trying to predict either outcome is gambling, and personally, I do my gambling at the crap tables in Las Vegas, not with my coin budget. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
