[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1258127, member: 15929"]Yes, it's difficult.

Asking "Is it time to focus on clad coinage?", on the other hand, does. While it's true that certain clad issues are as common as crooked politicians it's also true that there are many clad coins that are simply no longer available "because" folks figured they were common. Those coins are lost forever and now is as good a time as any to actually focus on finding the best specimens you can for future generations of collectors that have the ability think beyond whats valuable "today".[/QUOTE]
