rjkingston Pillar of the Community United States 642 Posts	Posted 03/30/2011 8:00 pm In the past, I've been told I lacked the ability to focus on any one type of coin collecting (or currency for that matter) probably due to a little OCD....ok a lot of OCD. Limiting myself to regular issue US coins and Currency is focused enough, isn't it? Well, a little while back I started breaking my focus into filling an entire date range before moving on. First project was all regular issue US coins from 1950-1999. That was a lot of coins, but by far the easiest of the date ranges (you'd be surprised how hard it is to fill every denomination of 1955). Once completed I decided my next project would be 1932-1949 due to the coin shortages of 32,33. Well, I'm about done! I've got one coin left (1933 D Wheat cent) before I've filled all dates, mints, and denoms from 1932-2006! That includes 1932 D & S Washington Qs. I've got a half dozen 1933D Wheats on my ebay watch list. Next project: 1922-1931 (From past collecting, I'm only short 18 coins from this date range) These calculations don't include bullion or Gold.....yet ASE's are almost done too....

rjkingston Pillar of the Community United States 642 Posts	Posted 03/30/2011 9:36 pm Although I do have some proofs (All Washington Proofs are complete), I've only done coins issued for circulation so far. Report this Post to the Staff

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 04/12/2011 8:34 pm I'm not sure what your even talking about. I presently have well over 100 Whitman, Dansco and a few other Albums. In some instances like Mercury dimes, 12 Albums of those alone. I collect almost every denomination, year, mint, size, shape of US coins and mostly all at one time. I go to coin shows with a list I compiled for days and still buy anything I like list of no list. I really sell nothing wrong with being versitile. If I see a Large Cent I need or want or like, so what if I went looking for a Walking Liberty half. I'll buy the Cent. I thought everyone was like that. Report this Post to the Staff
