Coin collecting items can be a great source of fun for the entire family. The hobby can be a great way to learn about the history of your country, as well as to collect a wide range of coins.
The first step in learning about coin collecting is to decide on the kind of collection you’d like to start. Some collectors focus on the artistic styles of a particular time period, while others prefer a more comprehensive approach.
Regardless of which type of collection you choose, you should make sure to read a good coin book. This will help you avoid committing scams. There are also books that give you tips on grading your coins, and handling them.
If you want to get started, it’s best to start with coins that aren’t too rare. Buying coins from circulation is a safe and inexpensive way to start.
Many hobby stores carry a limited selection of coin storage products. These can include a coin tube, a coin folder, or a coin holder.
For the most protection, you’ll want a holder made of hard plastic. Some holders feature two-piece capsules. Hard plastic also provides the tightest seal, and will prevent the damaging effects of moisture.
A good starter coin is the Mercury Dimes. You can find them for face value in your local bank. Or you can purchase them at a coin show.
When you’re ready to start storing your coins, it’s important to choose a holder that will keep them safe from dust and moisture. Plastic, aluminum, or wood cases can all be used for storage.
