[QUOTE="ratio411, post: 1089115, member: 26729"]People collect what they are familiar with. Unless you have unlimited financial means, folks have priorities and that is natural. I am in the US, I am familiar with US coins, they are easy to get where I am, and if I had the afforementioned $1300, I'd buy a nice 09-s VDB cent, since that is what I am used to and what a collector in my locale strives to attain. World coins are great! There are plenty of gorgeous and desireable world coins... I fully intend to collect world coins when my US coin/currency collection is complete in full! ;) Basically, there is too much 'collection' to worry with at home to expend time, money, and energy to expand beyond. If I lived in another country... I'd collect that country's coins, then go on to world coins when my home collection was complete. It's the same all over.[/QUOTE]
