Hi I'm Steven Newport and am just getting back into it again

 

Not sure where I'm going from here. I sold my last collection when My wife took sick. Now it's time to start over again. I find the pull of coin collecting is very hard to ignore. I don't expect to do this in a hurry. My last collection took many years to gather, not that it was of any huge dollar value. But enough that I was very proud of it. So here I go again.

Welcome Steven,

 

Like yourself I found myself taking a 6 year hiatus until a couple of years ago. Good luck on your collecting endeavors.

Welcome home, Buddy!

 

In your re-start, take stock of what you had or specialized in, and Pick your favorite of them all, and unless you have plenty of dough-rae-mi, limit yourself to that coin or category and grade. You can always expand later.

 

Some of the big dealers are selling at pretty reasonable prices, take advantage when you can. Hope my 2 cents helps.

 

Best of wishes,

Welcome back to this great hobby! Most of us have similar stories where life put our collecting on hold. Glad you made it back and I think you'll find the Collector's Society fun and informative.
