<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Flamdrag99, post: 2574442, member: 83236&quot;]Mat,</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This is a hobby and as long as you are having fun it with and maybe even learning a few things that is all that really matters, right? </p><p><br /></p><p>I am a collector at heart even though I have not always collected numismatics.&nbsp; So for me collecting coins is the best way I know how to &quot;save&quot; money.&nbsp; You don&#039;t have to buy these big money investment type coins to build a really neat and interesting collection.&nbsp; I know that even if I lose money on every piece that I buy at the end when I finally do decide to sell it will be one lump sum....hopefully.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>At any rate sometimes the view is a bit skewed when looking at all of the expensive numismatic items and people lose site of what this hobby is really about, Money and the history that is involved around the money.&nbsp; There are Ancient Kings of the Axumite Kingdom that if it wasn&#039;t for their coinage we wouldn&#039;t even know about them.&nbsp; Many times coins tell a really interesting story about what was going on at the time of issue, you just need to learn how to decipher what it is telling you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
