<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sweet wheatz, post: 843452, member: 18313&quot;]When I first started on CT I was very green and was happy to find a 1916-d lincoln or vdb while searching through my coins. Since then I have learned alot, spent alot and sold alot.&nbsp; Instead of looking for the cheaper coins I now look for high quality coins and semi key dates to both buy, keep and sell. Who knows maybe next year, instead of looking for semi key dates, I will be looking for the key dates.&nbsp;&nbsp; It helps that much of what I earn from coins I put right back into more coins.&nbsp; </p><p>I have also learned many things along the way like what auctions not to bid on, what coins are not worth trying to buy based on grade and I&nbsp; learned that buying in bulk may not be the best way to get the coins you need (but can still be fun to look through). I am learning how to grade properly and can now cherrypick coins that are graded to low.&nbsp; </p><p>Thanks to all of you, I have grown so much in the way of collecting and have knowledge I never had before.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
