Oddibemcd New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 10/25/2015 1:13 pm First Post! From the great state of NY. I'm 36 years young, and my wife is currently 13 weeks pregnant. I started stacking bullion at the beginning of 2015, mainly as a way to convert some house savings into a form we couldn't spend. A couple months ago I picked up Whitman albums for Morgan and Peace dollars. I've added a few common Morgans and I'm five coins from completing the Peace album (27, 28, 35-P and 34, 35-S). Because I'd like to fill the actual book, I've focused on raw coins. As I finish on some of the more expensive Peace, I'm quickly finding I'm out of my element, especially buying on ebay. Would prefer not to make a couple hundred dollar mistake. Look forward to learning more on the forum. Report this Post to the Staff

Like you say ; you don't want to make a couple of hundred dollar mistake. Your success is: education of the coins you want to collect. Have fun with the hobby and post some pics of your collection.

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 10/25/2015 7:09 pm to CCF. What grade Peace dollars are you looking for? You can always buy them slabbed by PCGS or NGC or ANACS and then crack them open. At least you know you won't be buying a fake. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

Oddibemcd New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 10/25/2015 8:30 pm Thanks for all the warm welcomes. I don't have a coin photo lab. Best I can do is a shaky iphone. Let's see if any of these look better than blobs: 90% and the two items I was passed down from my grandfather, a 1898 nickel and a 43 steel penny. Gold Bullion Silver Bullion The three pages of my Peace Album. Sorry about the quality, need to think of a stable photo platform. Thanks again for the welcome and for taking a look.
