<p>[QUOTE="playin4funami, post: 761855, member: 21976"]Well,I'm not the worlds most knowledgable collector,but I learn more every day and keep trying to expand my knowledge,I recently got the silverbug also. Now silver is a game I'm trying to play more like an investment,It is seperate from my coin collecting,yet closely related. For coins I still like searchhing rolls and looking for errors and completeing sets,if I find an error that I don't want to keep It gets sold right away,a bird in hands worth two in the bush,and if I want to keep something I find I keep it. Not out much either way. If I'm looking to complete a set by buying a coin or two it often gets set aside until I find a good deal on the quality of coin I'm looking for,then I just assume a lose on the item. Silver is where I am trying to make money,and I'll haggle and argue a price till it's a good one for me or walk away,keep strict records of price payed and spot price that day etc.,etc. If the deal isn't looking like it could be a profitable one I walk away.Collect the coins for fun and if you want to make money on some keep them a seperate deal from where your real pleasures are.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
