[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1015377, member: 26302"]You are a good collector and I am glad you have fun. I feel the same about ancients, no price guides and buy a coin if it is worth that much to you. I have no idea how my wife will do when she sells my coins when I am dead, but I sure as heck will have enjoyed them until then. :) I hope none of my posts upset you or any others who like toned coins, especially since I used to buy almost exclusively toned coins when I collected US coins. You have the right temperment and view of the HOBBY. My only points about toned coins has only ever been the same as when Commemoratives were hot, warning collectors about the inflated premiums, or any other "hot" item in numismatics, that of being careful to not get swept up in the momentum unless you truly are just buying a coin for your own enjoyment and not expecting price appreciation.
