I began with a handful, separating them into value piles, then checking each pile for something special. I began believing I had way too many special coins. I could use some assistance on how to proceed without making myself crazy. Much Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Maine Member Valued Member United States 450 Posts	Posted 07/25/2025 10:37 am Hello fellow Mainer. Might I suggest that you start with one series or denomination, and study it to the max (mintages, grading, errors, etc.) so as to not be overwhelmed with all of the others. In my younger days, I started with the Lincoln Cent. Good Luck and welcome to the forum. Report this Post to the Staff
