Add remaining '11 and '12 5 oz silver ATB Quarters that I am missing. 5. Add rolls of silver Canadian Wildlife Grizzly, Cougar, Moose, and whatever the 6th coin will be. 6. Get caught up with my silver Britannia collection (4 years to go).

At first I was going to answer, "whatever I feel like doing. I have enough goals at work and don't need more to stress over". But then.... 1. Reeded Bust Half for my 7070 2. 1914-D Lincoln Cent3. A few Indian Head cents and Buffalo nickels I don't have 4. Sell a bunch of stuff to finance 1-3

Excellent thread! To paraphrase a favorite '80's movie of mine... my wish list is writing checks my bank account cant cash! But here they are anyway: 1. Keep up with the ATB 5-oz UNC releases...and figure out a good way to store/display. 2. Start my Kennedy circulated Dansco AND my Kennedy Proof/BU Dansco 3. Keep up with the ASE releases AND fill in holes to complete the set to date (I have back to 1999, so I have a few to get...and a couple expensive ones). 4. Like so many others... stack silver.  5. Start a Half Dime collection. 6. Keep working on my Lincoln Cent and Jefferson nickel Danscos 7. Build a storage box for my ATB 3-coin set collection 8. Start a BU/Proof Franklin Dansco 9. Upgrade my circ Franklin Dansco 10. Get cracking on my BU/Proof Ike Dansco 11. Buy a bigger safe! That should keep me busy and in the poor house!

My hunt list over the last few years has diminished in size But as it has reduced in size it has been harder to find the outstanding coins. I am adding a few coins to the hunt list namely
1777, 1778,1779 Maria Theresa thalers( Guenzburg strikes)
A 19th century Zanzibar Ryal
A gold Arabian Peninsula Larin
I don't expect to see that much success in 2013 this year I only reduced my hunt list by two coins( while I am adding five) and I think my total purchases were no more than 10 coins and one gold NCLT ( Austrian €100.00).

Not firm goals yet, but . . . 1 - buying one of every pre 1933 US gold coin from a LCS(PCGS MS63), over the coming weeks/months, not all at once 2 - buy whatever ungraded silver they have, while I'm at it (they only keep 10-20 ozs of Silver bullion viewable at a time) 3 - use goals 1 and 2 to build a good relationship with one or both of the two LCSs in my area

Other woods can damage coins( Oak is particularly unfriendly to coins).

Surpase the 50 ounce silver collection as well.. currently sitting at 39 ounces. Also like to feel the remaining 17 holes in my circulated Kennedy half dollar collection, and like many others, feel a 1986-2013 ASE album. I have the album, just very few ASE's. Most my silver comes from my Morgan's and Peace dollars. Happy New Year all!!
