<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bahabully, post: 1606612, member: 17555&quot;]Start with certified key dates imo. Assemble your base collection keys, where the keys should make up at least 70% of the total value of your collection. Play with whatever fancy holds you at the moment with the other 30%, and be ready for a lot of different roaming interests over time... sooner or later you&#039;ll likely find a couple of series that grab and hold you, for now enjoy them all as they grab your eye.</p><p>As to profit, your as likely to flush $20 down the toilet and have it overflow with $100 bills as you are to make any significant profit from collecting coins. However, if you collect wisely, one day, with a bit of luck, you can get your $20 bucks back.... which ain&#039;t too bad for money put into a &quot;hobby&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, and read Dougs posts.... in the end state, as you evolve through the hobby you may find yourself in an unsual place,,, where the hobby becomes a quest for not coins, or profit... but something else. I know of old wise and wealthy collectors who collect what I consider cheap crap, yet they find great joy doing it........ others quit collecting totally, yet find great joy remaining in the hobby and taking part in discussions, learning and teaching...... hummmm.... </p><p><br /></p><p>enjoy the ride.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
