<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Rookie, post: 97073, member: 4717&quot;]After spending the last couple of days reviewing old posts and digging through the &quot;junk&quot; coins I have collected through the years, mostly from my days working in a grocery store 25 years ago, I think I have an idea where I want to start in collecting coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>It appears everyone collects in a different way and for a different purpose so I understand there is really no right/wrong way to go about this.&nbsp; I have always enjoyed the Kennedy halves and will begin my focus in that area and eventually work into the Franklin halves once I have some experience with grading. I currently have about $200 of old Kennedy&#039;s to go through.&nbsp; Most conditions not good but all silver or clad.&nbsp; Lots of Bicentennial.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also like the ASE so will pick them up as I can.&nbsp; And Ike&#039;s if for no other reason than to spend them, as some of you do, to get peoples reactions.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, I was thinking as I was reviewing posts, that not many are fond of the new nickel for collection purposes.&nbsp; However, if the future of nickel design is moving away from pre 2003 wouldn&#039;t that mean anything pre 2003 could become something of value in the future...how ever long that may be. Just a thought.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would appreciate your comments and suggestions, especially as to Kennedy and Franklin Halves and also on my thoughts about the nickel.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for reading and all the help I know I will receive on this site.</p><p><br /></p><p>R[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
