When I first started collecting coins again last year, I figured I would have a few small-ish nickel and related albums. I started out with Jeffersons mostly. I had basically intended on mostly collecting nickels and cents.

Fast forward to now where my collection is growing. I would like to potentially purchase a few more albums, but lack of money is a thing lol

I also have this dansco 2x2 coin stock book which I'm not using for anything right now because I don't really like dealing with 2x2's personally

I am thinking to start a state quarter/territory P&D collection, as it is pretty fun looking through quarter rolls for them.
My main focus in the past six months for the most part has been primarily my Lincoln cents album, which for me has been the most fun. I basically have all coins however now, with the exception of the 1970-S small date, 1960 small date in Memorial cents, and many of the S mint mark coins from the first two pages of Wheat cents.

Crazy how things change, though. Personally, my main hobby/passion for years was rooted in the fish keeping/aquarium hobby. I think ever since that basically fizzled out for me and I tore down and sold my large tank that I had setup in my living room, the collecting passion for coins and sets has really taken hold.

Anyone else have similar thoughts?

Thanks, Dearborn. I am working on trying to actively consolidate quarter collections.

In my soon to be owned blank quarter album, I'm trying to figure out a away to have enough space for Clad Washington quarters and proofs from 65-98, and then possibly all P&D mint State quarters/territories. This might not be feasible, though.

Trying to figure out something similar with the ATB album and Women's quarters as well. My ATB dansco album is only P&D mints, but I don't know if it will allow me to add an extra two pages I need to collect the P&D mint Women's quarters. We shall see.

Thanks, jbuck. I think it might be time to start slowing down, though!

I am happy that I have sets of all current circulating coins, though. Cents, nickels, dimes, quarters, and to some degree, half dollars obviously.
I mean, I don't have an active dollar set that is frequently circulated, but I mean, from my view, dollars it seems have never been completely popular with the American public and aren't widely circulated like the other coins are. I feel half dollars were a lot more popular back in the day. I could be wrong, though.

I would sort of like to start a set out of State Quarters again if I can find one for a good price.
