<p>[QUOTE="tommypski, post: 328614, member: 9020"]When I first started collecting I would do a lot of impulse buying. I would buy anything that I thought was cool. This started to get really expensive because i pretty much thought every coin I saw was cool. So I had to stop collecting for a little bit. When I got back into it I decided I needed a plan, I needed to pick a set that I thought would be possible to complete. I chose Jefferson nickels because they were easily in reach and very affordable. I figured I could even collect a set from circulation and pay face, but given how cheap they are I decided to put an uncirculated set together. I am in no hurry to put the set together so instead of randomly buying coins i need all the time, I stared from the beggining of the set and buy like 1 coin or so a week. Started with 38, then D, then S, proof, 39, 39D,...... If i could not find the coin i needed i wouldn't buy anything else untill I did find. That way I'm not spending money all the time on random coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
