    Too many. I'm trying to be more focused these days:

    US Type Set
    Washington Quarters (32-98)
    Morgan/Peace Dollars
    Prussian 20 Mark Gold

    But the truth is...anything I find that I can't say no to.

    Depends on how you define "actively".

    Sets I'm "working" on
    nickel three cent need 1884 haven't added a coin in maybe 5 years.

    Seated Half dimes, need 1846, 1865, 66, & 67. haven't added a coin in over 30 years.

    English Conder tokens (genuine trade tokens actually issued for circulation) there are about 650 varieties I have 555 of them haven't found a new one for a couple years now. English Conder tokens in general there are about 2000 varieties I have about 970 of them. Add one every now and then. Another subset are the Skidmore Churches & Gates series. (They picture the churches and gates through wall of the Old City of London.) There are 125 different churches or gates pictured, I have about 70 of them. Add another every couple years

    Early Date Large Cents by die variety There are 295 varieties, I have 268 varieties. I add about 1 per year now.

    I'm working on one collection, of course it includes all of the above and one set of found in circulation and then the accumulation of purchases. Basically I want one of everything and several of some of them. If it has to do with money I'm interested.

    Golden & Modern Hollywood. More 1930s - 50s the past year.

    I used to go to autograph shows at hotels in Hollywood & L.A. near the airport in the 80s and early 90s with my dad. Many old-time and even current at that time had people signing. Of course did San Diego comic con in the late 80s till 2009 and other local cons. Now they're too expensive to get in and crowded to enjoy, before covid.

    But times have changed. No way am I paying $100 for some chump who was dead body #5 on CSI, it's ruined the fun of going.
