starbuxinvestor Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 616 Posts	Posted 09/08/2012 08:33 am I am a new collector but I have decided to concentrate on trying to get high quality examples. I see lots of threads on serial numbers and while the occassional one might have some interest to me like a very low number I can honestly say the patterns don't. I guess this is just like some folks like their coins shiny and others appreciate unique toning. But that's collecting, different strokes for different folks. Report this Post to the Staff

COMET Valued Member United States 223 Posts	Posted 09/08/2012 9:22 pm I'm guessing you collect modern notes? If thats the case concentrate on high condition notes. It has that extra eye appeal and if you ever need to sell any you won't have any problems. Report this Post to the Staff

wquinn Pillar of the Community United States 2295 Posts	Posted 09/11/2012 09:31 am Building a type set is a great way to collect too. Buy the highest grade you can afford, to a certain degree. I wouldn't go overboard in the very high CU grades though. In other words, aim for CU examples and you'll have a great collection. I'm not that big of a fan of serial #s either. I have some attraction, but not enough to pay those exorbitant prices. Report this Post to the Staff
