Very cool ! 116 varieties ! thats a real accomplishment ,,

How many coins did you actually have to buy to get the varieties or were they pretty much laid out so you knew which you were buying when you purchased them ?

At first I was just buying coins when I could. I'd sold some cattle and had a little cash in my pocket, so... After awhile I began looking at the coins (online) more carefully with a reference book in hand so I could get the varieties needed. I had three coins which were mine to begin with the rest took about four years and I'm not finished yet... LOL

You should have close-in pictures of these coin instead of an video. Can't even see the coins as you flip through the album.

Most Excellent.

Just one small picky point - you can't count! <smiley>

You have 14 pages, not 13!
