Is This A Good Start?

That's absolutely a good starting point !!
It's more than some start with right here in the U.S. !
Do you plan on getting any more very soon ?

Very nice...looks like you have the makings of a nice type set

You might want to add a large silver dollar and a small modern dollar to round out the set so that you have an example of every U.S. denomination.

From there you can expand into a larger type set unless you get hooked on those large silver dollars.

Holy carp! You have 12 coins and 16.667% of them are 3CN! You better be careful or you'll have some people on here...okay...namely me...trying to convince you to expand on them.

Thanks for your opinions and advice!

Over here it can be quite an effort to get some better US coins. By saying "better" I mean something other than:
-the current circulation series
-Morgan dollars
-Indian cents
-Buffalo nickels
as only these seem to be abundant here. Although I must point out that the last three types are almost everytime so worn that I wouldn't consider buying them..
Anyway, Ken_3567 you're right, I do want a silver dollar. But not in such condition as those currently being on offer (VG to F). And it wouldn't do any harm to have some modern ones either.

*ElleKitty, very nice gallery I must say. With a beautiful photo of the 100 yen, exactly the one that has been evading me ever since I started my South-East Asia collection.. Just can't seem to get it here!

*Prethen, the 3 cents are my favorite ones. That explains the avatar, however now I feel I unintentionally copied yours..

I am in the U.S. and I don't own most of those coins!

Edit:
I just picked up a neat Polish coin though...
Seller is in Ukraine.

The Morgan and Peace dollars here have about .77 oz of silver in them.

I noticed that Poland has several coins that have silver content. If you would like to swap out some silver ZLOTYCH coins for some Morgan or Peace dollars I would be willing to do so.

I collect silver first and coins second, so as long as the silver content is the same, I really don't care so much about the colector value of the coins.

Just let me know if you are interested.

By the way, you have a much nicer set of US coins that a lot of the people in the US that collect coins.

sfwusc, there is no Euro here yet. We still have the Zloty. When you check COINAHOLIC's photo, you will find some there. Top row: 10, 20, 50 groszy are the ones we use now. Bottom row: 2 grosze (the brass one) is also a circulation piece (there's also another 20 groszy there). However, by some accident there is an Austrian zinc 2 groschen in the bottom row too. Finding modern ones shouldn't be any problem for me. In fact, I'll check what I've got right away.

ratio411, nice one, with one of the earlies dates! It's a 1/2 grosz I suppose? I'm no expert on medieval ones though.

ElleKitty, yes I meant the Phoenix one. No wonder it's one of your favorites! Also I love the design of the 1935 10 sen coin, which I still have to get as well.

COINAHOLIC, thanks for the welcome The others on the photo (I mean all the 20 zl and the aluminum 5 and 20 groszy) were withdrawn in 1995/96. About 240 zl in these coins was worth 1 US cent then. People didn't even bother to roll these and take them to the banks..
