And yet is a doable collection for most to collect in most grades MS to EX.</p><p><br /></p><p>So again I&#039;ll go with unappreciated rather&nbsp; than undervalued as some series are always hyped, and others are seldom talked about. ....another series that comes to mind is Roosevelt dimes.&nbsp; </p><p>Unfortunately they too have little crowd appeal.&nbsp; </p><p>However coin collecting isn&#039;t an investment, unless you add in the knowledge you learn form collecting. </p><p>That to me is one of the best returns for my time spent, as well monies spent to build a collection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
