[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 871989, member: 15929"]I don;t know if this has been stated or not but, if you are assembling a collection from pocket change for the sheer joy of doing so, then forget what the dealer said. What you may find is that your interest in collecting may expand beyond the pocket change stage at which point the circulated coinage in the InterceptShield may seem a bit silly. But.........thats for another time after you've experienced the difficulties you'll encounter with building a collection from pocket change. You'll quickly discover that what you want simply may not be available in your area. For me, Philadelphia coins can be a challenge since I live in California and likewise, San Francisco coins can be a challenge for someone living in New York City. The net result is that if you want to continue, eventually the cost becomes justified for what you are looking for. Do what you want for now and just get some experience. You may like, you may love it, or you might just get really turned off by it but you'll never really know until you jump in. Good Luck on whatever decisions the three of you make.[/QUOTE]
