    Wow, that actually is a rather large collection.
    I have a large collection of World Coins, I got started out with 150 or so coins, US and World coins from my dad in 2008, who got those coins from his dad in 1991. I've been adding ever since. I haven't counted how many coins are in my collection, as it keeps growing, but one thing I want to do is organize it!
    The fact that it is kinda scattered kills the heck out of me and the only thing I really have documented are my graded coins.
    I'm trying to photograph every coin in my collection as well.
    I'm glad I don't have the number of coins you have, Evorlor! ;)

    Nice collection! I like the way you've organized the different series in that excel spreadsheet with completion percentage. I may have to plagiarize that format.

    My mothers parents owned a 30 acre farm in Bucks county that they retired to back in the late fortys. I spent many a summer there. Hind site being what it is, I wish we could have explored the place a little more in detail.

    No reason you can't go back and check it out today unless the land has been developed...

    The place was sold back in the '70s. I hesitate to think what was done with the property.

    Not counting my hoard of silver from coin roll hunting (rosies, wash, halves), I only have 32 "collectible" coins. 12 of which are mercury dimes also from coin roll hunting :D

    No ****? :p

    I lost them when I was like... 13? 14? A long time ago... I'm guessing they got tossed into a box with a bunch of other crap from the same age and put into storage somewhere in our barn.

    '
    I checked my inventory, about 7500 coins, 60% in 32 albums, a dozen or so of which are complete (except for those confounded 2009's that are taking their time), 5% proofs, the rest mostly circulated coins not in albums, which are waiting for additional sets to start, sale/trade, or helping new/young collectors get started. Total of about $1,000 face value.
