Wow, I've actually managed to complete pretty much all of my collecting goals at this point. I still need a $5 Hawaii note to complete my set, so that's one goal. Other than that, I guess I'll just keep stacking silver when the price is right, but that's not really a "collecting" goal.

I'm wide open for the coming year. Let's see what catches my interest...

I hope to finish a complete set of "Operation Bernhard" notes with both Peppiat and Catterns sigs in all 4 denominations. Also to add at least 12 coins to my ongoing 7070 slabbed set.

Well, 2013 I want to try and acquire 10 Ounces of silver, hopefully in junk coin form (or I can trade here maybe, if I get it in bar/bullion form).

I also want to get my collection stored properly, I've got 2x2s on the way for christmas.

Oh, and I want to get to 50 ancient coins. I'm on 32 right now.

I haven't finished a complete goal list for 2013 yet. I do know that I want to finish my small cent albums and my Jefferson nickel album. Somewhere in there I'd like to increase my coin buying budget. Maybe pass up Steak & Shake a little more often to save cash for coins. Lol I'll get started on that goal list now.

Finish my Australian Koala 1oz set (only need 2007 & 2008).
Continue stacking 90%, especially Peace dollars.
Continue working on my circulated Kennedy, Lincoln, and Jefferson albums. One day I might even start upgrading those and adding the proofs.
Acquire my first gold piece.

I think that's a pretty good list of goals for the new year.

Finish one, two, three, four, or all five of these sets...

7070 (16 to go)
Indian Head cents (twelve to go)
Lincoln Cents (three to go)
Buffalo nickels (four to go)
Mercury dimes (three to go)

The Buffalo nickels set is doable. I said that last year as well, yet there are four holes left (better than the eight I had).
