Any fellow numismatists here? I collect US coins. Considering some US currency.

Doubtful but hopeful

No, I did as a kid and still have a boatload of coins in a safe deposit box. I should probably sell them so someone else doesn't have to deal with that later--but I probably won't.

Be careful venturing into currency. I have a friend who started a currency trading business several years ago. He chose currency over coins because so few (relative to coins) people were interested in currency that there was much more potential profit in trading it. I'm not saying you shouldn't do it; just do your research more thoroughly than you would if you were dealing with coins.

Good luck & have fun!

I buy silver every paycheck. Some just regular, but have many different coins including Star Wars. All 1 troy ounce or 2 ounce.

I inherited a bunch of silver certificates a number of years back. Was just thinking about expanding that collection. I'm quite familiar with just about any US coins or currency from the 20th century.
