[QUOTE="JBaker, post: 1328602, member: 32398"]I think based on your response, and the response from other members, I will just stick to collecting U.S. coins for now. And I'll definitely send you a PM before I make my decision as to what coin to buy. Thanks! Is this link below a type of token that you are referring to? If buying a coin, would you suggest I buy one that is already graded? or should I just make sure what I'm buying is in good condition and actually worth what I'm paying?

But maybe I can convince my brother to go with me since he's also getting into coins. Thanks! As a kid, (who am I kidding? I'm 19 - I still am a kid) my favorite types of movies were always either about the Civil War, WWI, WWII (with WWI being my favorite), as well as the "sword and board" days of the Romans, Trojans, etc. I'd also like to mention that I've noticed that the coins that appeal to me the most are the bigger ones (mainly the ones bigger than quarters), and I think that's because I've never really had much contact with them.

I'll continue reading your responses and begin browsing online to see what type of coin (or token) I want my first buy to be. JBaker[/QUOTE]
