<p>[QUOTE=&quot;spirityoda, post: 1836843, member: 44633&quot;]welcome back to the greatest hobby ever.&nbsp; longnine009 put it right..are you a collector or investor ???&nbsp; that will determine how much you will spend on a coin.&nbsp; I do it for fun but know what coins are more rarer&nbsp; than others.&nbsp; maybe do a type set first to figure out which coin designs you like best.&nbsp; I myself love the vast variety in world coins.&nbsp; after collecting coins for 16 years I am much more focused on which coins I am hunting for.&nbsp; my particular interests are in world coins with topical/themed coin collections...&quot;coins with insects&quot; being my favorite, then &quot;coins with hands&quot;, coins with certain stars&quot;, coins with small coins on the coin as the design itself&quot;, rainbow toned coins, and large MISC. section.&nbsp; buying books will definately help you out.&nbsp; I love my Krause world coin catalogs dating back to the 17th, 18th, 19th, 20th centuries.&nbsp; I buy them every 2 years to see where my coins values have gone up or down and to see the new coins being made.&nbsp; do NOT let someone else tell you which coins to collect.&nbsp; you will get more out of coins if you pick your favorites.&nbsp; best of all enjoy the hunt.&nbsp; do not feel you have to pay crazy prices for coins either.&nbsp; if you are happy with a cheap coin then that&#039;s what you should get.&nbsp; buy the best you can afford.&nbsp; sometimes I would save up for a particular coin.&nbsp; have FUN.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
