<p>[QUOTE="Jim Dale, post: 6515034, member: 100459"]I really didn't know that I would like collecting coins until my father left his "coin collection" to my brother and me. It was up to me to come up with the inventory of the coins and then to try to divide the collection equitably between us. The more I looked at my father's collection, the more I liked the coins. In many cases, I had to do research about the coins so that I could be equitable. There were about 30 Morgans, 20 Peace coins, and other coins that I had no clue that they existed. I finally got a list and was able to assign a value to the coin. I divided the collection and let my brother decide which set he wanted. I even told him that if he wanted to change his mine on the selection, he could, if he would make any and all changes within a reasonable time. I kept the coins that were in the set he did not select, apart, until I got his final approval. I don't know how much research he did, but he finally said that he wanted to switch sets with me, which I did, gladly, to settle it. I told him that his selection was final. He agreed.</p><p>In the mean time, during my research, I found out that coin collection, although being "fun", was hard work, but I liked the details of collection. Since then, I have built up my coin collection. I only collect U.S. Coins, although I have quite a few of coins from Europe. I have learned a lot, but I still like to collection the Mint's coins. I have gotten a real kick out of watching Rick's and Coin Vault shows and the price they put on coins. Almost all my coins I purchased through the Mint is advertised by those to show to be at least double, if not more, than what I paid for them from the Mint. I was a lucky customer of the Mint's Enrollment. I just got the 2021 W American Silver Eagle and am very pleased. I will probably not get the Type 2 ASE W. Too little being produced and too many will sign on to buy them. Anyway, I liked this thread. Thanks for all your input.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
