mike31093 Valued Member United States 354 Posts	Posted 10/11/2023 7:32 pm I was at my local antique store today, looking to pick up some Peace dollars. After I picked several (will post later) I spotted the familiar blue US Mint box and asked to see it. Looked so good in my hands I had to have it. Upon arriving home I opened my coin spreadsheet to record my purchases. Oh Noooo. I already have 2 entries for this commemorative, both are 2-coin sets! At least this one is a single coin. http://goccf.com/t/452905&SearchTerms=world,war,ii Edited by mike31093 10/11/2023 7:33 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 10/11/2023 9:22 pm @mike, it happens to the best of us. I mentioned a couple days ago about having a duplicate coin over in the OFEY thread.

westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 10/16/2023 11:58 am I do it too often with varieties of my 2 cent collection. That is why I'm trying to build a photo database that I can carry on my phone to shows. At least when I buy them online, I can only blame myself for not checking before pulling the trigger on one, at shows I don't have access to all my notes and photos of the 100's of them I already do have. DOH! These days it's an expensive mistake as prices have doubled or more on the grades I look for. "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R. Feldman - "And read it" - Me 2013!
