<p>[QUOTE="coinnewbie01, post: 328821, member: 12176"]i dont know that my opinion will count for much seeing as i have only been doing this for only a few weeks, but here is how i see it. i stumbled into an 1881 morgan silver dollar a few weeks ago, and i have been hooked ever since. but for me i look at it in a different way. i look at coins as not only something with dollar amount on it, or what it could be worth in the future, but rather as a piece of history. for me this hobby is really good because i love american history, so this really is something that i know i will grow to love. however i too am on a tight budget. yes i want to go and buy every morgan i can get my hands on, but thats not a smart idea. i had to take a step back just as soon as i started. thanks to the advive of some really great people here, i grabbed a few books to read up on, asked some questions, and came up with a plan. i decided that i will start smaller and try and complete a set of mercury dimes. while doing this, i can still research morgans, learn how to grade them properly so i know what i am looking at when i am ready to buy. start small, and grow from there is the best advice i can give u, and hopefully u will stick with it. good luck.</p><p><br /></p><p>G</p><p>:high5:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
