New To Numismatics In Oceanside, California

Hi all! I'm a long-time lurker who stumbled into numismatics after a good friend asked for my help liquidating his late wife's collection. I started listing them on ebay using her notes, but grew increasingly concerned when I was consistently unable to see the "errors" & price justifications notated alongside them. Thus began my journey down the numismatic rabbit hole, and I've yet to resurface.

With all of the available resources, this site included, I've diligently tried going it on my own in order to avoid asking questions you've doubtlessly answered a hundred times for a hundred different newbies.

Then I hit a wall, and now here I am.
