Basically, ANYTHING across the whole range of numismatics.
By expanding your numismatic horizons to the maximum, you allow yourself a much greater range to choose from, and are much more likely to get best value for your $50.
You need a reasonably good general numismatic reference library to support this approach to buying; I have about 150 numismatic books.
BY this acquisition method, the value of my collection has grown consistently, at least by the inflation rate over the decades.
If the purchase is not in my area of priority numismatic interest, I may be tempted to exchange later for something that IS. However, I am not normally a rollover freak for profit, I am still essentially a collector. A really good bargain would most probably remain in my collection for at least a very long time.
Don't let an oportunity pass you b(u)y.
