Try to invest regularly. Like the stock market, it's difficult to call the tops and bottoms in the coin market. Over the course of time, you will fare better by dollar cost averaging than investing a large amount at one time.

If numismatists - those expert in coin collecting and valuation � agree on one thing, it's that coins should never be cleaned. Every coin dealer has horror stories about a non-collector who comes into his shop with a box of shiny old coins. Most of the time, the coins have no numismatic (collector) value at all; they are just old but common coins. But occasionally, a rare former beauty is found in the mix. It's a former beauty because whatever value it once had has been scraped off by an excited finder and a jar of silver polish. The coin, which might have been worth hundreds or thousands of dollars, is now all but worthless.

Banknote enthusiasts enjoy individualist status; the hobby is regarded as intriguingly different. It has a certain prestige attached to it; people tend to assume that a banknote collector must be well-off - but this is often not the because many attractive banknotes can be obtained for well under 50p each. The hobby has a refreshing dignity to it; the banknote collecting fraternity is generally an honest, friendly community, with a genial camaraderie born of a common interest.

As a general rule, the more common a gold coin is, and the lower grade the coin is, the higher the profit margin (expressed as a percentage of the selling price) for the dealer must be. The reason for this is that low-grade, common coins are harder to sell. Another reason for this difference is dollar value. If a dealer buys a common date, heavily circulated 1940 Wheat Cent from you, he might pay you 2 cents for the coin and sell it for 5 cents, making a greater than 100% profit (but still only 3 cents!) But if he buys a key date, heavily circulated coin, such as a 1931-S Wheat Cent in Good (G-4 grade), he might be able to pay you $50 for it, even though he will make only a 20% profit when he sells it for $60. The difference here is that the 1931-S is likely to sell much faster than the 1940 Cent, plus the dollar value involved in measurable.
