[QUOTE="Billy Kingsley, post: 766097, member: 19456"]It really all depends on what your definition of "nice" is. For instance, many world coins are cheaper then McDonald's 99 cent menu. But I find them Very nice to look at and own, even if I paid only 10 cents for it. Thus, they fit my definition of nice and they are undoubtedly a good deal. If you're talking about classic US Dollar coins (Peace or older), or high quality coins from the 1800s, then odds are NO, you probably can't find a good collection for a bargain. But then you have to put fiscal background into perspective as well. When you have a guy like Bill Gates or Warren Buffett, or pretty much any professional athlete, dropping $1000 on a single coin might seem like a bargain to them, where to guys like me, that would be unthinkable and probably more then I will spend on this hobby in 10 years time.[/QUOTE]
