jbuck Moderator United States 188770 Posts	Posted 04/15/2008 3:18 pm How about... "People Collect Coins, Intelligent People Collect Three Cent Nickels" Stolen from the Men Play Football, Intelligent Men Play Soccer bumper sticker I had in high-school!

nohope587 Pillar of the Community United States 5953 Posts	Posted 04/15/2008 5:20 pm I'm no numismatist so I am happy with my 2 Cents.... I don't want to be a 'real' numismatist this is just a hobby after all. Report this Post to the Staff
Prethen Pillar of the Community United States 3234 Posts	Posted 04/15/2008 5:35 pm All in good fun, Richard. I hope I'm not coming off as "elitist". Actually, that would be hilarious as well as ironic considering how unlikable 3CN are to most collectors as a series. Report this Post to the Staff

Although it really pertains to tokens it could work for 3CN: "The few, the proud, the superior." Edited by longnine009 04/15/2008 6:57 pm Report this Post to the Staff

inacoffeebuzz Valued Member United States 204 Posts	Posted 04/17/2008 2:19 pm I think you will be happiest with what interests you and what fits your budget. If you're budget is $20 a month, trying to collect a set of Standing Liberty quarters in Fine or above is going to be more than just a challenge, but a set of ASE's might be doable (at least till you hit the leaner years/mint marks) assuming the price of silver drops back to reality. I think the survey and discussion also leaves out those who like to do type sets (one of each). And nobody has mentioned the 3 cent piece for some reason . Report this Post to the Staff
jeremymh Pillar of the Community United States 543 Posts	Posted 04/17/2008 4:40 pm It seems none of you mainly collect Half Cents. I was told they were very popular, but it seems not. Though I'm only infering this from my survey which received only 43 votes. Report this Post to the Staff
Prethen Pillar of the Community United States 3234 Posts	Posted 04/17/2008 5:10 pm I think this is the wrong board for stuff that EAC (Early American Copper) guys go after. I'm not knocking this board, but it's not aimed or known for attracting a lot of advanced collectors (yet, although I think this board is attracting a lot of folks, which is great!). EAC stuff like Half Cents are definitely in the advanced collector realm. Report this Post to the Staff
