<p>[QUOTE=&quot;marid3, post: 1378265, member: 35968&quot;]I&#039;m both a Type and Date/Mintmark collector.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Date/Mintmark - I inherited from my family some mostly low-quality circulation coins, and as a kid, was given albums.&nbsp; All US, Civil War to present - dis-interested in errors completely, only dates/mintmarkes/varieties, highest grade within price/quality reasonableness matrix.&nbsp; After a long break from collectting, I&#039;m trying to fill in holes, mostly down to key dates - that&#039;s my Date/Mintmark goal.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Type - F-AU circulation coins that relate to key dates in our history (founding, civil war, prohibition, world wars) and Key Date coins.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>So the two converge right now on Key Dates, and that&#039;s where I&#039;m focused, just picking up a few here and there in the specific grade range I&#039;m looking at.&nbsp; Given how expensive Key Dates are, I&#039;ll be here awhile.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>My big goal is dodge countefits/altered coins . . . I&#039;d love a link to a great thread full of advice on this topic.&nbsp; I&#039;ve read a couple books which have touched on this, but they weren&#039;t very helpful.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
