@Abehunter Did get all the answers to your questions?
What can I possibly help you with? ☺️
Should I collect what I like or what is rare?
Collect what you like within your means …… who care about the rare coins if your heart is not in it!?!
What area of collecting are calling on you ?
Nothing is calling in one direction,it's feels like something I might enjoy doing
I guess I'll start with Abe pennys,penny's, do you like to look for,collect

I do have a 43 d,would like to have a 44 like that

Most people just start out trying to complete a set of Whitman folders. They are available in Barnes and Noble stores, hobby stores or you can buy them on line at numerous locations. Just start searching rolls and try to fill the album. Get a Redbook on US coins for info purposes and soon an aspect of what and how you want to collect will come along. Starting out with little investment means you will not lose much if you decide its not what you want to do.

@Abehunter ... Welcome aboard. As advised above, get a Redbook. Go to coin shows... You will be amazed at the coins you will see. At some point, you will start to focus on certain types of coins... gold, silver, copper...large, small.... U.S., foreign.... Above all, have fun. Cheers, RickO
