[QUOTE="Hin, post: 392701, member: 15102"]Thanks for the ideas. :D I think I will follow the advice to check out some coin shops and see what I like. As well as educate myself with some book reading. Is it better to collect proofs or uncirculated mint coins... or some of each? And if I started collecting a set would I want to make sure to get them all the same (proof or uncirculated) or does it matter? Coleguy, I didn't mean that I would rely solely on my coin collection to get me through retirement. I never thought that I would be able to collect coins and make millions, if it were that simple everyone would be millionaires. I just want to make some good coin choices so that I have the option of selling them for some extra money once I retire. I do realize that the monetary value of a collection depends largely on the amount of money and dedication put into it.[/QUOTE]
