Help Me Decide!

I am currently not a member of any groups when it comes to my collections, but am interested in joining a few. Could someone please give me advice on which ones are worth spending my money on. Such as PCGS, ANA, ect.. ect..

Thank you

Chris

    What reason do you want to join a "club"?

    I would be interested in knowing what you collect in coins before directing you to any specific groups. If you have a specialty that would be good, or even if you know what direction you might like to go in. It makes a difference, with dozens of specialty groups all over the country.

    I, for instance, am a Lincoln cent die variety specialist. I belong to CONECA (Combined Organization of Numismatic Error Collectors of America) and NCADD (National Collector's Association of Die Doubling) for my specialty, then I belong to half a dozen local and regional coin clubs for the philanthropy thing. I don't get anything out of them, but donate to their cause to support them.
