<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ccex, post: 80796, member: 42&quot;]When I returned to coin collecting six years ago my thoughts were similar to yours.&nbsp; I had spent too much on larger silver coins which were common enough to be easily promoted (Common date Morgans and a complete set of Franklins).&nbsp; I returned as a collector, not an investor, and thought of my old incomplete Whitman folders of series I never had the patience or resources to complete.&nbsp; I chose Barber Dimes because they were small and therefore unpoplular, affordable (at least in the commonly encountered lower grades), and had enough challenge in tracking down the better dates without problems.</p><p><br /></p><p>Barber coins have received a lot of press this year, and I am amazed at how well my patience in assembling original, no-problem coins has paid off in the last six years.&nbsp;&nbsp; Now that the cat is out of the bag about Barbers, I might start on U.S. 2 cent coins or 3 cent nickels.&nbsp; Collect whatever you like, but stick with your plan patiently, until others see your wisdom![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
