<p>[QUOTE="chascat, post: 3335854, member: 76792"]I think most coin series could fall into the same category of overpriced and overgraded. $20 Saints are probably the most undervalued thing going these days, relative to their value over spot, but out of reach for most of us. Circulated Morgan dollars are a great way for new collectors to build a beautiful collection without breaking the bank. Lincoln cents in XF-AU are also very affordable. Everything we do in life is relative to our economic ability, especially things like coin collecting. When I started collecting, sorting thru bags of pennies was my only option, not buying coins from the local shop. The expensive ones never made it into my collection unless I found them, kind of like roll searching is now. I have a really nice set of Franklins but certainly not even close to the finest available, it's all relative to my budget, as it is for most of us.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
