Do you like the T206's that you have? Do you like showing them to your friends? I know a guy that's also 11 or 12, and he has about 20 cards pre-1915, and likes showing all of them to his friends. They are all different kinds.
If you like looking at your T206's, or like showing them off, then maybe that's not a bad set to collect. Or, if you like other cards too maybe you can have some T206's and some T205's and some other kinds of cards too.
It's mostly what you think looks cool.
I think that you would be okay with ungraded T206's or T205's or Obaks or things like that if you stick kind of close to this board. Check the BST. If you see something on ebay you can email people here and they would help you make sure they are not fake. That way you wouldn't have to spend as much money on graded cards, but would not get fakes.
So ... which cards do you think look cool?
