[QUOTE="jimmyrules712, post: 282372, member: 10367"]For years I have collected coins kind of on a whim. I've just bought whatever seemed neat at the time. Now I'm finding nearly everything interesting and I think I need to plan out my collection before I just start spending a ton of money on random pieces that don't fit together. For starters I know I'm going to acquire all mint sets and clad proof sets from 1999 to present (I have a strong interest in the 50 state quarters and the new prez dollars). I'm also thinking of collecting the SBA, eisenhower, and Sac dollar series. I love all dollar coins but the morgans and peace dollars are too expensive for me now (I'm just a college student). also on a sidenote, I was at my bank today and just as an afterthought asked them how many pre-SBA silver dollars they had, and to my suprise with a quick intercom call i was told they had 128 Ikes. Are circulated Ike's generally worth any more then $1? I was very tempted to just buy all of them at face value and try to resell them or something. beyond those basic thoughts I haven't really figured out where I want to go or how I want to do it. Any tips?[/QUOTE]
