<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BRandM, post: 1091436, member: 22729&quot;]After admiring the beauty and history of currency for as long as I&#039;ve been collecting coins... nearly forever ... I decided to finally pick a series and educate myself about it. When I&#039;m comfortable with it, I&#039;ll start buying what appeals to me. Actually what pushed me &quot;over the edge&quot; from just being a spectator to making the decision to collect was the passionate collectors on C/T. I&#039;ve always had a small collection of notes, pieces I&#039;ve picked up over the years from different places. I have a few fractionals, some obsoletes, Cobfederate notes and some small and large U.S., but I never had a goal, it was just an &quot;accumulation.&quot; Now, thanks to you guys, I&#039;ve decided to get serious about persuing a series.</p><p>I&#039;ve narrowed my choices down to two areas, obsoletes and fractionals. I&#039;ve been studying up on paper money in general and have a couple of references I&#039;ve been reading to get a feel for it. There&#039;s also a few sites on the internet I&#039;ve found that are helpful, but I don&#039;t have a reference book on obsoletes. Could someone recommend a few good sources of information for me? Is there a &quot;Red Book&quot; for this area of collecting? Any advice or guidance would be most appreciated. Again, thanks for pushing me &quot;over the edge.&quot; I&#039;ll post some pics of what I have now when I get a chance.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Bruce[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
