I'd like to make some sort of dent in the remaining Lincoln Cents needed for my set in MS62/63 RB:
1913-S
1915-S
1924-D
Or maybe a nice 1909-S to replace my VG one. Not gonna be able to buy more than one or two of these most likely.

Do the same routine to get some money as I did this year (Buy and sell from garage sales, ended up making some decent $ this year and counting) then put it toward a decent looking 1909 S VDB. Preferably a VF-XF piece, slabbed.
Probably will break it out and put it in my Dansco, then complete my Dansco. By the end of high school, I'd like to finish my 1909-present book, 1930-present being UNC (only need like 5 more coins), and 1909-1929 being VF+ problem free (so far so good)

My goals this year will be to add a few more of the large diameter CBQ's in G6 or better coniditon. I am about half way through this adventure. I also want to add a tube of 2016 Silver Eagles to the stack at some point this year.

I did pretty good this year, but don't expect any major victories this year due to funding. Aside from getting all the 2016 US coins next year, my main plan is to buy at least ONE of the five coins I heed to complete the rest of my sets. I will probably get either the 1914-D cent or the 1913-S T2 Buffalo, as those will be the cheapest. I also plan on completing my post-silver 50-cent, dollar, and two dollar Canadian coin sets, which will be easy. I also think I can finish my Canadian cent set. I'll probably cut my lists for Canadian nickels, dimes, and quarters down to 8-12 coins each, but the remaining handful will be pricey. |

Oh, my goal would also be to own my first bust half, my first seated half, my first bust dime, first bust Half Dime, first Trade dollar (maybe), and first 20c piece. Yes, I don't even own a seated half, and I've been collecting for (coming up 12 years this month)...and yes, someone found like 7 Seated halves several weeks ago CRHing...... |

@coinhuntingdrew- that is exactly why my 2016 goal is to focus on the 7070 this year to expand my collection in a way I get to add new type coins and be able to display/view them all in one place... In the past I'd sometimes buy type coins and then they'd be in flips, then in envelopes and then put in my safe until one day I'd clean my safe out and not remember buying them.

@Drew, I get those same feelings all the time about the CRH ;) Glad someone is able to find victories like that around here!

Most of the remaining coins and notes on my wish list are getting harder and harder to find (especially at prices I can conceivably afford). Stuff like a proof 20-Cent Piece or a Proof Liberty Seated dollar. If I actually do manage to get one or more of those items, I likely won't have any budget left to buy anything else. Assuming I don't get those, however, I might decide to start upgrading some of the coins in my 7070 album. A few years ago I wouldn't have even considered paying hundreds of dollars for early copper, for example, but now I'm thinking I can probably try to find some nicer examples in the $200-300 range (again, assuming I don't end up spending thousands of dollars on more exotic coins). Oh -- and after digitally expanding my online 7070 album to include more types, I'm now on a mission to find a decent 1874 Liberty Seated quarter with Arrows and Motto without breaking the bank in the process. I recently found a matching 1874 Liberty Seated half dollar for around $130, so if I can find a decent quarter in the same price range next year I'll be happy. |

A 1782 4 Reales from any of the colonies will hopefully pop up and a chop marked 1882 Morgan will thrill me. Otherwise, whatever unique coins of '82 to pass the time and feed the addiction.

1. I am going to finish my 20th Century Type set as I still need a certified Standing Liberty quarter. 2. I'm also building a short set of just the Certified Silver Ike dollars in both MS and Proof 3. I putting together a set of US Proof sets from 1950 to 1964 of which I currently have 5 sets. Other than these things I buy mint sets, proof sets, and the Commemorative coins issued each year that are clad or Silver coins. |
