<p>[QUOTE="panzerman, post: 3025178, member: 77704"]I agree with most posts. Myself, I collect for the enjoyment it brings me. As most of you know, I have stuff that spans 26 centuries, I have it in my DNA to strive for best quality, coins with great eye appeal. To avoid "problems", I only secure coins from prominent auctions to avoid fakes, defects referred as 'details" on slabbed material. I am allowed to spend whatever $ that is left after paying the bills, to compensate that goal, I work long hours doing lawncare. Over past 12 years, after giving up my other hobby, I was able to put 100+K @ year into my first love...coins. My collection is worth today about ten times the money I spent, so all is good. I look at my coins every day, but NEVER touch them, so they remain perfect.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
