<p>[QUOTE="slippinin, post: 1325122, member: 30421"]I've collected a few different things over time and one problem, whether it's coins or anything else, is that the people producing the stuff are trying to squeeze every dime that they can out of it, so they usually end up making so many in order to have enough to sell to everyone that that in itself makes the stuff uncollectable. I suppose low runs is one way to go, but if everyone else is doing the same thing then a large portion of what you're collecting will remain intact and won't be lost over time and there will still be a lot of them. One coin I'm having a hard time finding a really nice one in circulation is the 1999-P new jersey state quarter. I'll probably have to buy a roll of them someplace. You can't really go wrong with gold and silver as far as I can see, it's a good bet those prices will rise by the time your kid has grown.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
