Excellent tips Mark!
I'm working on #4 right now, it will be my first sale. So far it's not going to well, but we'll see by the end of the week.
I also tend to have problems with #8, but I think I need to look at it like I'm buying the coin(s) for someone else. I did this with my father-in-laws 1937 birthyear set, and I think it came out pretty good.
