Iv decided to change my focus and just work on basic collections. I will still do research on errors and varieties but will no longer post for confirmation. If I find anything to post error or variety wise it will be to shoe you guys not to question, thanks for all the knowledge everyone. I will still check in regularly to read posts but that's about it.

Untill I am more knowledgeable and confident I have no reason to continue to waste everyone's time. Once I get a collection put together of all the different years I have aquired I will post that and over time upgrade my collection.
Rest in Peace

@wrek, well I'm still glad you are here and participating at the capacity which brings you joy.

I don't think it is unusual to have your collecting focus change over time. For sure, mine has...

I'm with you on this one. I used to collect error coins but recently saw no reason to do that.

I am still going to study errors and varieties, I will just not be posting anything as a question any more. If I find a nice error coin worth posting that I can confirm my self, then I will post it(same goes for verities)

I inspect every coin I have for even minor doubled dies. But I should be able to confirm what I post and not ask for an answer.

Best to educate yourself as much as possible before commenting on complex subjects.

That's the goal, iv been getting better with with scope, understanding how to get the lighting correct etc, looking for doubled dies on circulation coins is much harder then uncirculated. Even errors like struck through or planchette errors can be a bit confusing. Before I would look at some of my cents for way to long before I determined PMD now is just a quick look and I know(for the most part. I'm sure I will post more in the future but not unless I know what it is. I shouldn't need you guys to do the confirmation for me.
