Roosies in top 10

Got home from K-mart. While there I went to the magazines in search for something coin related. I found the newest issue of Coinage. In it was the best of 04, best buys, hardest to grade, future riches, essintial equipment, ect. Looked great. As I flipped through the pages I noticed that there was a next big thing type of thing in there, the top 10, basically stuff thats cheap today, and will be expensive tommorrow. Now ofcourse they had the usuall stuff, your lincoln cents, indian heads, full head quarters, high grade moderns, good for there grade barbers, key dates/semi key dates. Then I noticed Roosevelt dimes. That was one of the neatest things, ive seen in awhile. Although it does kinda suck that they would put them in there, cause that would cause others to buy up, and dollars would rise. Besides they already said that there rising, but still at bargains. I hope I could finish my collection of them before prices get ludacris. Thats all I wanted to say.

    Roosies have never gotten much respect largely because they tend to be overly
    scarce or incredibly common. While there are some now which defy these categories,
    there have always been many issues which are tough in higher grades. Additionally
    large numbers of these have been destroyed by melting, negligence, or circulation
    in the last couple generations. Numbers will prove to be somewhat lower than most
    generally assume.

    Dimes make interesting collections in any condition and are likely to recieve more at-
    tention as people discover this.
