<p>[QUOTE="TomCorona, post: 540082, member: 17621"]Well thanks for the responses, and I agree w/BQ. I do think half the fun is grading and hoping for what each coin could be/ may be some day, worth, and w/MS..well..MS is MS. (sort of). I guess to each his own. Perhaps the longer I collect, the more "snobbish" I will become with coins and get on the "I only collect the best" bandwagon. Who knows. If I were rich, I'd buy all the best, all the time, then again, if I were rich, I might not care about collecting coins. Maybe collecting real estate or stock or boats, planes,and trains would be more "stylish". Cool thing about coins is everybody has or can get access to some type of coins and start collecting. Boats, trains and planes are a bit tougher to collect (for me). Quantitatively, coins are infinite, and the quality can vary greatly, something the collector "tweaks" over the years as one goes along, and, in my mind, thats the real appeal of collecting. I'm also sure that if I had the choice between an MS60 1872CC Morgan, and a 28,000 dollar car..well....I'm pretty sure I'd pick the car, even if it was a second hand car (a nice second hand car,mind you, maybe a Corvette or the like).<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
