<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 8508916, member: 101855&quot;]That might be good advice if you are collecting more common coins. The trouble is sometimes you have to wait for the right coin <i>to become available.</i> If you pass on something nice because you are holding out for the rarities first. My advice is study the series. You can put off buying a very common half cent variety like 1804 C-13 or 1806 C-1. But if you pass on a nice 1810 half cent, which does not seem like key date, you might regret it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Another point is it’s not a good idea to buy rare, expensive coins, when you have not learned how to grade the series. It’s better to screw up on a cheap common coin than a rare and expensive one.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
