<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mark_h, post: 625585, member: 3726&quot;]Ahh - not always true.&nbsp; I search for dates to fill my books and save the wheaties, pre-1960 nickels or silver. No they do not get sold.&nbsp; It was about the hunt - not the value.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yes you do need to know what you are doing before venturing onto ebay.&nbsp; And I made that fun when I first started, buy buying PCGS silver eagles.&nbsp; I would find the lowest auction price with shipping and try to beat it.&nbsp; On several of the coins it took a while, but I did it on the proofs. And yes I like to comparison shop.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now a lot of people do start collecting just cause they think they can get rich buying that SGS 70 coin and selling it for PCGS prices.&nbsp; They need to learn to collect first and just enjoy the hobby.</p><p><br /></p><p>My advice to a newbie would be to collect what you like and enjoy it.&nbsp; If you are not sure what you want to collect start with a type set of some sort. If you want to make money off of it - then learn and keep learning so you can buy and sell for profit like a dealer.&nbsp; Personally I have no desire to sell right now.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
