<p>[QUOTE="cladking, post: 49296, member: 68"]Kids should collect what they enjoy collecting but my own personal opinion of the most profitable coins in circulation will be the clad quarters. I would recommend that anyone interested in these coins buy the blue folders and collect them from change. watch for the best grades and varieties. There will be a few errors encountered also and these can make an interesting collection. </p><p><br /></p><p>There is real potential in all the circulating coinage because it has been ignored for so long, but the quarters probably offer the most opportunity due to the high attrition, great wear, and high visability caused by the state quarters. Many varieties remain unreported and these coins were very expensive to set aside back when wages were only a few thousand dollars per year (school teachers made about $2,500 per year in 1965). Cents may have the least potential for the amount of work but can be the most interesting since these have the most varieties and old one can still be found in high grade more easily than the other denominations.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
