Finish Peace dollars with the 1928

Maintain my silver Eagles, silver proof sets, and proof commemorative dollars.

Chip away at my early commemorative set.

Two $1 gold coins for my 7070.

Awesome goals guys & gals.

As Joe2007 said patience is huge. One thing I learned in 2014 (first year seriously collecting) is that it's not about just having the coin to fill the hole, it's about waiting until you find a coin you like to fill the hole.

matttheriley, I'd be interested in what Dansco's you might have (empty/filled). I'll look at your trade/selling lists or you can PM me. Thanks.

matttheriley: Are you trying to trade the entire albums or are you also trading the individual coins? If you are willing to trade individual coins I'm interested in some of them and I have a couple coins to trade that are on your want list. You can PM me if you're interested, thank you!

Going to a major coin show would be something that I would like to do.

I would like to get closer to completing my Merc set, or my type set. I would also like to get a classic proof coin.

2015 General Numismatic Goals:

1. Organize and catalog my collection.
2. Go to more coin shows.
3. Get more expensive, higher grade pieces certified by NGC.
4. Buy quality, not quantity.
5. Help some friends who are just starting to collect.

2015 Specific Numismatic Goals:

1. Buy AU/MS Barbers (including V nickels)
2. Buy Uncirculated 20th Century US Classic coins.
3. Buy more Morgan and Peace dollars.
4. Begin to work on a mid-grade 19th Century US collection.
5. Continue with ancients.

Mine is pretty straight forward...

1. Finish my Peace dollar set. Still in need of the 21 and the 28-P.

2. Continue work on my Morgan collection. Still 21 coins shy of the complete set.

3. Continue working on my old copper collection. Half-cents primarily...

Happy Holidays to all!
Rest in Peace

My main goal of 2015 is completing my photography set up. I just purchased a Canon T2i and plan to purchase a decent copy stand (not a made in china pos) and either a bellows to compliment the 18-55mm lens or possibly a Tamron macro lens.(still undecided about the lens set up)After that, more Morgans by the VAM and hopefully fill a few Dansco holes.
