Information About Coin Collecting
A collector would choose certain specifications when it comes to his coin collections. If a coin collector is new in the business, it is a tradition to start at the very beginning. You can't just flip a coin and decide the result, although, that can be the last resort. Alright, so down with the real thing. You can choose your collection based on your preference. Are you the silver, bronze, or gold type of person? How old do you like your coin to be? In what period?
Best advice: start at what interests you. Then collect it by the following:
Date or Period of Time
Coin collectors who see their collection as an investment would probably prefer coins that are older than their grandfathers. The more ancient the coin, the better. Aside from being centuries old, there are also Revolutionary coins and those that came from another time in history. Some people would start by building up decades of coin that embraces Mint condition.
Country
If you have decided to collect any kind of coin for as long as it came from different countries worldwide, that would be tiring but exciting. And it can cost you a lot. So things wouldn't be exhausting, you could start off by collecting coins of your own country. After that, if you already have enough funds, you could drop by a coin shop and ask if there are any coins from outside the country then go to the next or just gather it in one blow.
Metal
If you're a beginner, you wouldn't want to start collecting silver or gold coins for these are the kinds of coins that can bore a hold inside your pocket. Better settle with the lower metal levels first. Not unless money is not a problem. Usually, the concern on what kind of metal to choose belongs to the more professional collector. Aside from being a challenging collection, it puts you in a lot of risks.
By this time you may already have an idea on where to start. As the hour glass makes its due, you will become more interested and selective of the types of coins that fits your album. You will develop areas that you may not find in other collectors.
You still need to know some specifications about the kinds of coins that you will collect.
Details
You have seen an ordinary coin, its features wouldn't be different from the old one because typically, new coins are just patterned from old coins. You have to inspect if the writing on the coin is still clear. A coin wherein the smallest details, like feathers or robe folds, are completely worn away is of little value.
Toning
Means discoloration or tarnishing, toning can increase the coin's value. Believe it or not, if a blue tone is present on a silver coin, it can be very desirable. Toning has an effect on a coin's details for it can accent its faded features. For as long as the tone of the coin wouldn't turn out uneven, there's no reason to reject it.
Wear n' tear
If you have been in coin shops that are offering bargain coins, it might be because it has been into a lot of circulations and the market has already rejected it. You will notice certain kinds of scratches an even scarring that is caused by chemicals. Scratches can be acceptable but scarring is a no-no. Chemical scarring can be related to corrosion, pits, etc. As much as possible, make your coin collections spotless.

Knitting, macrame, crochet...?
I need an easy to read book or website, with instructions for some basic stitches, to create small pieces of costuming.
I need something like chainmail, but it doesnt need to be stiff, or from wire (they take a long time to make). I am hoping to create something similiar with metallic yarn and possibly very small guage wire, with easy to create stitches.
Any help is appreciated.
There are several online sites to help with learning to crochet:
http://www.anniesattic.com/ This one actually has written words with pictures and then for some things there are small videos.
Some more places for crochet:
http://www.geocities.com/snowymts.geo/crochet2.html
http://www.learntoknit.com/instructions_cr.php3
http://www.crochetcabana.com/
These are just a few. A simple search for crochet will get you many more.
For knitting well there are also many great sites for that also:
http://www.knittinghelp.com/ My favorite place with videos
http://learntoknit.lionbrand.com/ The lionbrand yarns website has many things to check over (oh they also have a crochet area)
http://learn-to-knit.com/ This one will teach you left or right handed knitting.
Macrame is not a difficult thing to learn. It is simple to complex knotting but easy to pick up, but I have never found many sites to teach it on the internet. Still there is this:
http://www.elainecraft.com/instructions/instrucFAQ.html
You have to realize that it takes time to learn to crochet, knit, or to do macrame. For a piece of chainmail the best might be the macrame, expecially if you have any experience with knotting.
None of these crafts are a learn it in minutes type of thing. It takes practice to learn how to handle hook, and needle and to be able to make knots uniform.
