<p>[QUOTE="Moen1305, post: 48599, member: 2544"]Well, I wouldn't exactly call myself a "new" collector but it has been only in the last few years that I have had more time and money to devote to the hobby I'll admit. I'm a selfish collector because I like to buy coins when they are selling for less rather than more. I also like it when a collector hasn't bothered to try and interest his/her children in the hobby and the kids end up spending the collection on candy or selling it for nothing after they die. I love to pull old coins out of pocket change and I think that doing so for non-collectors brings them into the hobby. Nobody wants to lose their coins but you sure don't mind finding someone elses once they've been put back into circulation.</p><p>Also, you nor anyone else can predict whether or not the market is going to continue to be strong for any length of time. As a person who isn't interested in how much my collection is currently worth or will be worth in the future, I like to buy as low as possible. I try to collect 3 sets of everything because I have three sons to pass it on to and the lower the prices are the more I can buy. So drop coin values drop I say.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
