<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ghostfire, post: 185572, member: 7462&quot;]Good points. I&#039;ve collected ancient roman coins for a few years. The historical aspects and pure enjoyment were the main reasons...not so much having the nicest example and certainly not for investment. And in buying I knew it probably wouldn&#039;t be easy to liquidate (although I&#039;d like to get something out of my collection one day..but I&#039;m not expecting a &quot;good return&quot;...if I&#039;m looking on a good return for my money I&#039;d be in other investment vehicles).</p><p><br /></p><p>One recent US coin example for me..I purchased a very nice AU50 Half Eagle Classic Head...I love the coin.</p><p>The reason I was able to buy it was because it has file marks on the rim. For me it doesn&#039;t distract</p><p>from the enjoyment I get out of the coin...and it provides some historical talking points when I show</p><p>my collection (similar to the &quot;holes&quot; mentioned above).</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m sure my initial question was confusing..and I&#039;m sorry..I knew I should have left &quot;gold&quot; out of</p><p>it...my Mr. Hyde side put that in.</p><p><br /></p><p>I meant my question to be&nbsp; more along the lines of...what is a collecting area in US coinage that is fairly cheap to collect? Quarters minus the 1796 year? Half Dollars? Indian Cents?</p><p><br /></p><p>regards,</p><p>Ken[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
