<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Art, post: 11122, member: 568&quot;]Welcome and I hope that you enjoy your collecting. Indian Head and Flying Eagle Cents are a wonderful series to start with. You can fit them into almost any budget by carefully choosing the condition for your first set. I&#039;d suggest that you keep all of the coins uniform in condition and color/tone if possible. It makes a pleasing presentation.</p><p><br /></p><p>My favorite books is by Q.David Bowers and it&#039;s called &quot;A Buyer&#039;s and Enthusiast&#039;s Guide to Flying Eagle and Indian Cents&quot;. It&#039;s a treasure. You can find it on ebay and at some dealers. </p><p><br /></p><p>Next let me suggest a local coin club. First they all need enthusiastic young collectors and will gladly share knowledge and resources with you. Often there are auctions and bourse nights where you can look at examples of different grades of coins. You can also get some decent bargains.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you want to get into varieties, check out Rick Snow&#039;s books. His website is <a href="http://www.indiancent.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.indiancent.com" rel="nofollow">www.indiancent.com</a>.</p><p><br /></p><p>Have fun and you&#039;ll not only keep your interest in coins alive, but you&#039;ll spread it to others.</p><p><br /></p><p>Enjoy![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
