I just can't seem to win. I missed the first meeting since I was out all week travelling for work. I missed the meeting on May 14th because I've been dealing with an emergency at work for the past 4 weeks.
Now, looking forward, maybe I can get to a meeting. Well, about that. My wife is due on the 23rd of June with our second son, and the meeting is on the 16th. Hmmm.. Is it worth sleeping on the couch?

I picked up a couple more Presidential dollars |

I haven't actually received them yet, but I "won" two presidential dollars on eBay. Regardless of the fact that I "won" them, I feel that I got a pretty good deal.
Since I decided to go with the Presidential dollars set, I wanted to be a bit more specific on what exactly I was looking for. I took a look at the PCGS sets, and decided to start small with the proof set. The funny part is that even with only 8 different coins released over 2 years, there are still 16 different proof strikes that you can get. Compare that with the 55 different non proof variations, and I think that the proofs are where I'll stay.

Where is the best place to get coins? |

So I got the urge to start collecting coins again. I think that I am going to focus on the presidential dollars since they are still coming out, and I can get them as they come out and can keep up with relatively low cost.
So I have two questions to everyone.
1) What grade should I collect? I was looking at the different sets, and was thinking of collecting PR70's for each. That way I could get NGC or PCGS certified PR70's and just let them sit for years. The population stays low, and there aren't many variations so it would be easy to get them.
2) Where is the best place to get NGC or PCGS slabbed PR70 coins? Dealers, eBay, other internet site? Let me know.
