No. of coins in your collection

Always wanted to run a poll, so I made up a question...

How many coins are in your collection (actual coins, not just types)?

great question. I will count them tonight. 1,000-2,500 ? actual number tomorrow. you should make a separate poll stating how long it will take to count each persons collection lol. I am guessing it will take me 1/2 hour ? lol

 

how many in your collection ?

 

Right now 750+ next week be about 250

 

you plan on selling over 500 coins in 1 week? Why?

 

Clutch went out of the Pete today. Transmission has 1.6 million on it. Taxes and Have my eye on a couple of 2k+ coins

 

485 total, but only 255 in active collections (that is, not counting an incomplete OFEC collection that I haven't touched in years).

Thanks for an interesting question. Had never thought to count them.

 

261 but I am counting proof sets as one... I don't know why, but that's how they are in my spreadsheet.

Should I include the 18,000+ Westward Journey nickels that are in Mint bags, Mint rolls, OBW rolls & tubes?

Zero coins, plenty of books and catalogs, though. I do attend as many coin shows as possible and catch and release exceptional coins when I come upon them.

For now, I'm focusing on grading skills, counterfeit detection, description skills, etc, preparing for what will hopefully be a career.

Do you flip coins? Buy then sell for profit as fast as possible? LOL?

 

Still counting...lol...already over 500...estimating 2000. Truly had no idea before I asked the question.

 

Logical (?) follow up question...what is the face value of all the coins in your collection. Convert to U.S. dollars.

 

So you're the one who voted ">10000"!!! Nice.

 

I think this would be a question that may go unanswered. Being a public forum, you could expose members to the attention of unscrupulous individuals. It is never a good idea to expose yourself in this manner. If desperate enough, even a hundred dollars could draw a response from the wrong crowd. IMHO.

 

done lol. 1,069 coins total collected in a 16 year period. total worth will be kept secret.
break down:
miscellaneous coins :558 this includes all my albums, statehood quarters, merc dimes, American parks quarters, sac dollars, presidential dollars. world coins.
coins with insects: 200
coins with stars: 124
coins with hands: 110
coins with small coins as the design: 25
error coins: 17
rainbow toned coins: 14
pop out coins: 9
parody quarters: 11
parody dollar/Daniel Carr: 1
took me about an hour to find it all. hidden in various places in my apartment.

 

I haven't voted yet. I'm waiting for an answer.

LOL...Yes, include them. They're coins and you have them as part of your collection.

 

Seriously? If I could count them there still wouldn't be enough.

 

I'll go to the bank and get $1,000.00 worth of pennies so I'd have a 100,000 coin collection. Quantity is irrelevant.
