I tend to collect a specific decimal series, of all strikes, including errors.

Nine-tenths of my Canadian collection are coins pulled from circulation, either by me or friends/family members visiting Canada.

Uncirculated business strikes, if I can afford 'em.

Otherwise, circulated business strikes.
