[QUOTE="Arizona Jack, post: 559656, member: 9308"]The best advise I have ever been given has come from our administrator, GD. You need to try to sell a few coins on occasion, or at least test the sell experience. This will make you more aware of what you buy, and in turn will make your buying habits improve. You will be a closer looker, recognise problems, tighten your grading , and overall...get a " feel for the market " A book can not and will not give you a feel for the market. Testing the sell experience will do exactly that. YOu will learn from that, more so than any technical info you can gain from reading and studying. Keep buying those books tho, don;t get me wrong. I cannot stress this enough, it is a must do on any new ( or old ) numismatists check list as you grow in this hobby. It will pay off in dividents forever.[/QUOTE]
