Mike,

 

I try to concentrate on whatever series I am working on at the time, but I have strayed from time to time when I have found something really nice or special. I guess the question is what direction do you want your collecting to take? Do you want to work on putting a series set together? Maybe a type set? Or perhaps you want only toned coins regardless of type?

 

The one thing I have personally found to be true is that it is more satisfying to set a goal for my collecting and than work toward reaching that goal, rather than taking the shotgun approach to coin collecting.

 

Good luck with your decision

 

John

thanks john.

 

unfortunatly, im working on way too many things at one time. over the last six months, i have added many small cents, mercs, and morgans. however, i have been eyeballing large cents lately. they dont seem to be moveing at a fast pace, and prices that ive found have been very good...... hey!! wait a second......ummmm,,, ya know, im thinkin large cents just might be my answer!!

 

thanks again john!

BUY EVERYTHING

Actually, I'd collect half cents over large cents. They are rarer than the large cent but there a fewer collectors so good deals can be found.
