Glad you put in all of the above. Since I've been collecting coins for well over 60 years my collecting habits have changed repeatedly. One day it's moderns, the next it's something else.

I had to go with all the above as I have some real nice upper end coins and then it sprials down from there.  |

I'm with TSOTL: quote:
I'm so low end I probably qualify for another category.

I just buy what I want, to specific reason or specific series. A hoarder vs. collector?

How about compulsive buyer vs strategic buyer? I think I'm the compulsive impulsive type. I tend to buy more items at coin shows that are not on my list than are on it. I'm definitely Low end/Middle line since I prefer modern coins and can't afford gold. And I like foreign coins. So I guess I'm a Middle-Low-End-Line-Darkside-modern-low value kind of guy  |

I picked low end. If the intended definition of "rare" includes the modern series key dates, then this would put me in the middle line.

I chose the Middle line, but I noticed on "Low End" it says "Manly modern day coins.........instead of "Mainly....."........so.....I don't know whether to change my answer to "Low end" only because I DO like to collect "Manly" coins as well!... Ha Ha LoL...sorry couldn't resist the typo!... Edited by eaglefoot

Although I don't consider myself a High End collector I seem to fall more in that category from the description given for each, so that is what I voted

I put all of the above. I hoard modern coins (they'll go up, I know it!), Collect the middle end coins, and often go in over my head and get a really nice, high end coin. I search for out of the box coins too.  |

I do not collect to many modern coins(except to keep my annual proof and mint sets up to date). I like old coppers, Bust coinage and coins from those periods. I also like Shield nickels and odd denomination coins. Mike |

I buy what I like so my vote was for all of the above.

I would probably consider myself middle-line because I buy some rare coins and a lot of silver but no gold whatsoever

Not sure where I would fall. I collect Indian Head cents. Thats it. Anything else I might come across would either be traded or sold for more IHCs. |

I prefer XF/AU for most series. I will purchase low end keys to complete sets. I just purchased a 1869/9 Indian cent in ag condition. |
