<p>[QUOTE="ice, post: 531425, member: 17129"]I have a small collection of coins some common date Morgans, Peace Dollars, Rosie's, Merc's, Walking Liberty Halves and even a Capped Bust Quarter. I was thinking of picking a couple of coins say Lincoln cents and Jefferson Nickles (this is just a guess). I was just going to collect all the common dates I can in the best quality I could find or afford. I would use these as a starting point to learn about grading, value, toning, damage, errors etc. Is this a good point to start? I am thinking that by coin roll hunting I might be able to fill out an entire set and buy the ones I don't have (I am doing the learning on the cheap). Since I am new I figured stick to common dates and I won't run up on as many counterfeits and scammers. I'm sure they are out there for common dates but most likely less of them. When I am serious about a key date I would post it here for comments. Am I nuts or on the right track? Thanks for your comments. Ice[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
