<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fjblair, post: 67235, member: 3117&quot;]As a newcomer to the game, I care much more about getting the coins I want and can afford rather than how much of a bargain or great investment it is. I realize my perspective might change as I learn more, but I started collecting coins because I like them, not because I want to maximize my return on investment or get the best deal possible.</p><p><br /></p><p>On some coin purchases I know I have paid more than than whatever the sheet or book says market value may be. I don&#039;t care. I can collect coins or I can fret over spending a few dollars more than someone else may pay. I do research what a given coin&#039;s value is but if the coin suits my taste and it is reasonably close to market value, I will probably buy it.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>That being said, the appreciation/value aspect of coin collecting is firmly planted in the back of my mind somewhere. But when I look at my coins or show them to friends I&#039;m thinking/talking about the coins and not the financials.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just another opinion.</p><p><br /></p><p>FB[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
