<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Notaphylic_C, post: 24656750, member: 130786&quot;]When I started collecting that is exactly what we did! But in my case that was 47 years ago &amp; the only &quot;books/info&quot; out there were dated pamphlets! </p><p><br /></p><p>Today is such a different context (with forums like this &amp; so many books/online resources) to educate oneself! I get tired of seeing this &quot;go with your gut&quot; sentiment bounced around b/c it takes the fun out of collecting too.&nbsp; I don&#039;t collect coins b/c I cannot imagine collecting simply what I like (blindly).&nbsp; I&#039;d go broke fast!&nbsp; I don&#039;t look at &quot;collecting as an investment&quot; but I don&#039;t look at it as simply eyeballing what goes through my pocket either. Learning what to collect gives me a great deal of enjoyment too! </p><p><br /></p><p>Every once in a while I see question/posts (on forums &amp; Reddit) about coin subscriptions, Littleton &amp; a collector seeking a new dealer. (IE: these people/businesses supply coins/banknotes for the collector).&nbsp; I guess that&#039;s what some people do but I can&#039;t, for the life of me, imagine going down that road. A great deal of the pleasure (for me) is discovering what I want &amp; the hunt that follows too![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
