<p>[QUOTE=&quot;se-collectibles, post: 852260, member: 24447&quot;]I&#039;m not disagreeing with you, but just buying the book doesn&#039;t do much good unless you also ask questions of experienced people. Part of the problem you&#039;re talking about is somebody who picks up a Redbook and thinks he has a fortune because &quot;it&#039;s in the book!&quot; or buys from a non-reputable dealer thinking he&#039;s spending $100 on a $200 coin when he&#039;s actually getting a $50 coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>You have to make mistakes in this hobby or you won&#039;t learn anything. I don&#039;t believe in telling someone what they should or shouldn&#039;t collect. It&#039;s all personal choice, but if you don&#039;t make mistakes and learn along the way, all you&#039;re doing is accumulating round metal thingies.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have a fairly extensive library I&#039;ve gotten on my numismatic roller coaster ride, and I add books on many subjects whenever I can. I don&#039;t know how many times I&#039;ve seen a question about something and thought to myself &quot;Hey! I have a book on that!&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
