By the way, my collection consists of all years from 1920 to date with most of the common varieties in various grades. Most were taken from circulation or roll searching. I do have several that have been graded and I am still looking for a reasonably priced ICCS 1965 V4.

Edit: I also have several large cents (can't find those roll searching) and a complete set of Nfld and PEI pennies.

I also collect Canadian small cents from 1920 to present. I am missing a few from the 20's and 30's. I have a complete date set from 1940 to 2010. I dont have all the older varieties yet. Alot of my coins have come from roll searching and from a friend up in Canada. On the newer coins from 1999 to present I still am missing a few the 1998 W, 1999 and 2000 P, also 4 of the 2006 coins. the 2007 to 2010 I have the coins but have to check the ones that I have to see which ones that I have, the magnetic or non. I have them all in my omni site with all my other coins working on to make an albulm on photobucket of them when I do will post a link of them.

I am an addicted roll searcher, try to do it everyday. I think it's worth it, since finding some real nice magnetic 2006s. But it is tedious, have to search through thousands, and thousands.

This what I found in bulk lot's.. I collect world coins by date and enjoy buying "kilo's" and spending hours and hours sorting them out.. I think in a few years I start filling missing (key)dates by stop buying bulk lots and buying specific coins.. Now to much fun in bulk, it's incredible what I find in those (cheap) lots..

I haven't really haven't started on pennies yet but I did pick up 1922-1925. I try and make it a habit to pick up the key dates when I can afford it. That way if I decide to start a penny colllection the worst (most expensive are already done) The coins are nly VF but the dealer I visit alot will allow me to upgrade them and he will give me full trends toward the upgrade. The only catch is I have to have bought the coins from him.

Thanks oldcoach & 4721butch,

I need to be organized as a world coin collector by date.. I made this Excel setup also that I can use it on my smartphone. (in a month or 2 I hope it's running and usable)
