The only advice I can give you on what to collect is to buy what you like. After a while, like all of us, you’ll figure out for yourself what you like more than something else, and you’ll focus on that one (or a few) things at a time. The reason is that none of us can afford to buy all of it, so we have to narrow it down. But it’s different for all of us, what we like, so I can’t tell you what to collect.
I can tell you, though, that you probably overpaid for a 2010 silver eagle graded MS-64. If you paid more than $20, you paid too much. You can buy single coins on eBay, including postage, for about that. Yes, yours is graded by PCGS. Whoever had it graded wasted their money. MS 64 for a brand new coin is basically a problem coin when you consider that huge numbers of them are coming out MS 69, and even perfect MS 70 are nowhere near rare anymore with the last few years of bullion eagles.
That’s the only other thing I’ll recommend. If you’re going to buy slabbed modern coins, don’t buy anything below MS 69 or Proof 69 DCAM.
