[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1426928, member: 15929"]Great Attitude! You'll fit in quite well and learn lots! The ability to learn makes for some Great Collectors! What you stated in your opening is what a lot of folks new to collecting would like to believe but the reality is much much different. I often look back and wonder why the heck I didn't stash rolls of Kennedy's and IKE's away at face value for the future until I remind myself that I just did not have that much disposable income! You do realize that an original roll of 1983 Kennedy Half Dollars sells for over a $100 a roll or that an original roll of 1983 Washington Quarters can sell for upwards of $900! Whatever, the change we received back in the 50's is highly sought after by collectors today and I truly believe that, 50 years from now, folks will be asking themselves the exact same question: Why didn't I stick more away when I coulda had them at face value? Something to think about and welcome to the forum![/QUOTE]
