<p>[QUOTE=&quot;panzerman, post: 2662984, member: 77704&quot;]Before the internet, it was easy to save up for coins! Back in 1990s, I used to put $ aside all year for CNG Triton auction. So, when my catalogue arrived around Dec./ I was &quot;unemployed&quot;&nbsp; after working full tilt from April to beginning of snow/Dec. By that time I has saved up 15 K to spend on that auction, that would get me a couple of &quot;mint state&quot; aurei. Nowadays, with the <a href="http://www.sixbid" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.sixbid" rel="nofollow">www.sixbid</a> site, there are 3 or more auctions a week/ so many tempting coins....esp. when collecting worldwide.</p><p>End result, never have time to save a wad to buy a really expensive coin, in a way its more fun though, since one gets a neat coin in mail every couple of weeks<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie50" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. Nowadays its takes 100K to buy 2 perfect aurei<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
