B,
You know what you're asking? I truly wouldn't know where to begin. There are so many variables with coin collecting. Like the country/countries you're interested in, themes, era, denomination size, PM type, goals, etc. For me, there are probably only around ten countries that make up the bulk of my interests. I prefer modern coins to older ones, in general, with the bulk of my collection no older than the 1990's. I prefer silver to gold. I don't have a preference regarding color, but many people do. I focus on proofs over uncirculated. 1 oz. or larger over smaller offerings. Unslabbed over slabbed. World coins instead of domestic varieties. My theme list is quite extensive and I could fill paragraphs discussing my preferences there. And so on... ad infinitum. That's one of the great things about coin collecting: a plethora of choices. But everyone's interests differ. I appreciate the implicit vote of confidence but I doubt I'm qualified to help you much.
