<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JBaker, post: 1329150, member: 32398&quot;]Any specific country you would recommend? I think I will start my collection off with a U.S. coin, but I&#039;m not against buying a foreign coin if it has a cool bit of history behind it, and if it&#039;s the right price of course.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Is a complete set of Eisenhower dollars just one Eisenhower dollar from each year they were made? Or would a complete set include other things like variations, error coins, etc.?</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I can definitely see where you are coming from, but the particular coin shop I had in mind when I wrote that post was one that someone had told me a story about. Basically, the guy told me that he walked into the store and they told him to come back at a later time because it &quot;wasn&#039;t a good time&quot;, so the man left and came back a few days later and when he walked in they told him he wasn&#039;t dressed like a man who had money to spend on coins and that their coins were only for people willing to actually pay.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, this story was probably mistold because the man it actually happened to was the one who wold me about it. But I&#039;ve looked up some reviews on this particular store, and they&#039;re not so good, so I think I&#039;ll steer clear of it.A</p><p><br /></p><p>And is this book in the Amazon link below the &quot;Red Book&quot; that you guys are referring to? I see they have spiral versions and hardcover versions, and apparently one for each year.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/2012-Guide-United-States-Coins/dp/B005FYDEB8/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1324441141&amp;sr=8-11" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.amazon.com/2012-Guide-United-States-Coins/dp/B005FYDEB8/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1324441141&amp;sr=8-11" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/2012-Guide-United-States-Coins/dp/B005FYDEB8/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1324441141&amp;sr=8-11</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
