Good thread; I'm really amazed that folks have THOUSANDS of coins! I'm feeling inadequate...

Oh, wait... is that not a number? That came up before here somewhere. I know of billion, trillion, zillion and maybe there is a bazillion. If so that would discribe my coins. MAYBE. |

By the way (sadly) my total grade points on different US coins is probably only about 6000 (for over 1500 coins)! Well, it's not that bad, but close! |

I have nothing older than a Barber half-dollar. Those American Revolution coins, though, look so good. It's a shame they never got too popular to circulate fully.

I just passed 2000 different US coins a few weeks ago and I keep a spreadsheet (actually multiple spreadsheets) to keep track of it all. My best category is dimes, where I have over 350 different dates/mint marks...and counting. I just got my 90th and 91st different Seated dime recently. Most of the rest of the dimes of different types I need are too pricy to buy either short-term or long-term. I couldn't even begin to estimate how many total US coins I had. Too numerous to count! I also don't know how many total different US coins there are, if you count proofs, commems, special sets, gold and silver Eagles, etc could be well over 10,000 possible. We're probably adding 50-100 new ones each year from all the US Mint products + circulation strikes. |

I would say around 1500. I don't have an easy way to remove duplicates from my Access database.

I went back and looked and actually I have more cents than dimes. About 430 different cents and just shy of 400 different dimes now.
