Before getting your feet wet I would..</p><p>1. Look around places like V Coins or MA Shops. Get a feel for what is out there. See what you like. See what is out there in your comfort zone.</p><p>2. Read a bit about the history. Wikipedia usually has good write ups on individuals, places or events. Try to acquire some of the numismatic literature relevant to what interests you. </p><p>3. Go to shows and try to find local coin clubs or numismatic societies. Here you may find like minded people who will share your interest and sometimes give you good advise. </p><p>4. Buy the nicest coin that you can afford. Try to establish fairly early on the minimum standard you want for your collection. If it is F, VF or even EF establish that benchmark and then stick to it.</p><p>5. Have fun[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
