<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RedTiger, post: 647165, member: 19098&quot;]A person can learn a little from reading books, and looking at website photos. Most will learn much more hands on, with real coins that he/she bought. I am from the school of: start slow, buy small, but go ahead and buy, and start enjoying the hobby. If a person wanted to study, they could do 100 other more financially or socially rewarding things instead of spending time studying for what is supposed to be a fun hobby. </p><p><br /></p><p>How I phrase it is: &quot;don&#039;t buy expensive coins, until you learn the basics of grading and pricing.&quot; It is an exceptional person that learns these things without buying any coins, maybe like 1%. Expensive is going to have a different definition for each person. So buy small, start slow, don&#039;t jump into the deep end without knowing the basics, understand that learning is a process, expedited by doing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
