[QUOTE="ddream45, post: 2372000, member: 77721"]So recently I have started collecting coins for some reason. So far I'm in love with the history and goal to collect all I can. I have been using a redbook as a guide, but there are some small characteristics redbook describes, but I do not know what to look for. This is the reason i have joined cointalk. To pick up on my mistakes before its too late. So as far as color tones, identifying cleaning marks, identifying fakes, and also identifying dipping/retoning I would appreciate any good eyes to find them and let me know. If i do have a coin that may be worth getting graded let me know I will be posting individual coins in "what its worth" As far as what you collect I guess it all depends on the person. Ive been trying to get one of every denomination. Before i get to the higher priced coins I would love to hear all input good or bad So hello to all and I look forward to learning more from everyone here[/QUOTE]
