<p>[QUOTE="Bonedigger, post: 220076, member: 4367"]I speak from experience, you've got to keep kids interested and being able to get a (F-VF) coin every other week is much more interesting than one (XF-MS) coin every six months or year. That is one of the reasons the US State Quarter program has revived the hobby. They're inexpensive, raw, and easy to locate. As one gets older then specialization and upgrades will come. But when young, buy the best you can and the most you can at the time.</p><p><br /></p><p>Trust me a kid will be much happier with two $20 dollar coins in 2x2 flips at the end of the day instead of saving six months for a $100 dollar coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
