<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JBaker, post: 1328432, member: 32398&quot;]Hi all,</p><p><br /></p><p>This past year I have been pretty interested in coins, and on most nights where I have nothing to do I find myself browsing eBay auctions of coins and lurking on this forum. Now that I have established my interest in coin collecting, I think it&#039;s time to begin collecting. The only problem is, I have no idea where to begin. At the moment, I don&#039;t really have a preference as of what type of coin I want to collect, but being a man who likes his history, I would prefer to collect coins that have a little bit of history or an interesting story behind them. While I do love my country, I am not against collecting currencies from other countries.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, my question to those of you who would like to help is where should I begin and what type of coin should I first buy? In your opinion (reasoning is always welcomed), should I stick to U.S. coins only? Should my first coin purchase be from a local store, or should I make the purchase off eBay, or even this forum?</p><p><br /></p><p>Mods and Admins - my apologies if this has been posted in the wrong forum, and if so, I would appreciate if you could move it to the proper one.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you to anyone who can offer me any advice.</p><p><br /></p><p>JBaker[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
