For some reason I haven't posted in this thread for over 6 months.  I am currently working on the following: 1. Curacao & The Netherlands Antilles set. - I am missing a couple of commemoratives which I should be able to pick up when I visit family in Europe again next year. 2. Provincial Coins of Utrecht. - I hope to see a few of these at the upcoming World's Fair of Money in Pittsburgh. Though you gotta get lucky to find any decent looking examples. 3 Music related coins and notes. - Still looking for a 5,000,000 Mark note from Heidelberg featuring Walther von der Vogelweide. 4. Birthyear Set Collection. - Moving ahead slowly. 5. Sell coins from the Baltics related to music. They don't appeal to me as much as they did before. - No progress on this front. I'm not in a hurry. |

I think my main goal is to actually join PCGS and send some coins in... I've got a few errors and sentimental pieces I'd like to see slabbed. A video interview with the President of PCGS conducted at the 2026 ANA Convention included news that PCGS would be modifying requirements for submission, including eliminating the membership requirement. The interview did not include timelines. . . |

No specific goals - just buying what I think is a good deal with the possibility of selling for a bit of a profit.

2026 Goal: Acquire every rarity (around URS-5/Sheldon R-7) in my exceedingly specialized field that comes to market.
3Q26: No progress/no rarities came to market that I needed.
I did pick up a nice 1492 kortling & a battleship note for my Dad at the ANA, though, & got to meet up with the big name author in early dateds.

My collection runs the gamet of most collectable coins, like one for each denomination, of modern coins that is. So to focus on a certain variety I'm going to collect Lincoln Cents. Joanne  |
