Finnish the gold page in my 7070 one left to purchase  The Saint-Gaudens, it will take most of the year to purchase one but it will get done.  Then I can continue to finish work on completing the rest of the missing pieces. (10 holes left)

I would like to acquire a 7070 and put what I have in it, then start on the rest. Peace dollar set would be the next I'd like to start. Get the last few Jefferson nickels from circulation, though that may be tougher. Have another CCF contest. Main goal though is a graded US gold coin.

Well, I figure I'll maintain my lack of focus and blow my coin budget wandering around shops and shows like a kid in a candy store, buying whatever garbage catches my eye, and then when I find something reasonably nice that I could actually use I'll spend more than I should keeping myself penniless (get it, penniless, nyuck,nyuck).

So you also have an ADD approach to coin collecting.

I'd live to 1). add some XF/AU Barber coinage to my type set 2). add a quality 1814 Capped Bust Half to my collection 3). work on the organization of my collection, arrange like items together, get some more boxes for the coins, and figure out a better way to store the currency

Not die. To ensure my collection doesn't end up in your collection.

The gold coin will be the goal of this years ISNA show in december. Peace dollars, no budget for at the moment. So. Contest anyone?

(1) I need to weed out some extra coins that I picked up over the years (the coins I never really got into enough to start working on a set). (2) I want to add to my Liberty Head Nickel collection. (3) I want to find a new collection to start working on (just haven't found anything that has caught my imagination yet).
