[QUOTE="brg5658, post: 1800131, member: 29751"]Spend more time at the library or borrowing books from the ANA library. Reading about coins can be almost as good as holding them in your hands. It's not the same, I know -- but I can spend hours pouring over an interesting historical numismatic book. My guess is that when you get to college, not only will you not have a lot of time for coins, but you'll also likely be distracted by other things (e.g., socializing). I took a 6 year break from coins when I was in college and graduate school. Once I was gainfully employed, I enjoyed the return to the hobby all the more -- and was actually able to afford coins I only dreamed of owning in middle school and high school. You have your whole life for the hobby, no need to rush it along. Take your time, and enjoy the ride![/QUOTE]
