<p>[QUOTE=&quot;panzerman, post: 3300290, member: 77704&quot;]Doug said it well, all of us have different collecting goals<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>The main focus is to have fun and enjoy this fantastic hobby. I am probably the best candidate to prove this, since I collect all periods in history. Also I am an average blue collar guy, but I have built up a neat collection in past 35 years. In recent Triton XXII, I had 5 coins that (a) I could afford/ (b) that grabbed my inner lust to get them. In the end I lost all five (they went ballistic) and ended up with my 6th choice....but hey I am really happy to have it. Its in my DNA to want coins with &quot;eye appeal&quot;, but I will compromise. If a MS-64 coin is $700 I would not pay $3000 for a 65. If we all had the exact same collecting pursuits, that would be a bad thing. In the end, we do this for enjoyment, not for a quick way to speculate and turn a quick profit. Of course&nbsp; being a history buff, that is part of the allure.....</p><p>John[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
