<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Art, post: 22291, member: 568&quot;]Great answers. Welcome to the forum. I collect circulated coins. Like a lot of the folks have replied, it&#039;s the history. Imaging who has used the coin and why. I have a lot of circulated US and World coins but really only a few areas that I concentrate on.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am not an advocate of buy the very best coin you can afford. To me that&#039;s sort of wasteful. I&#039;d rather have two or three or ten nice circulated coins that the price of one UNC will buy. My special collection is Flying Eagle and Indian Head Cents. I&#039;ve broken the field into two catagories that I call expensive and less expensive - roughly 1890 to 1909 (less expensive) and 1865 to 1889 (more expensive). Later issues my goal is XF40-45. Earlier issues VF will do nicely. Keys like the 1877? Who knows. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have one really beautiful 1904 MS65 Red. It&#039;s my this is what a great Unc looks like coin. I&#039;ll acquire a Red or RB proof sometime in 2005 - same reason.</p><p><br /></p><p>Above all -- have fun....</p><p><br /></p><p>(Pretty windy response).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
