I am curious what everyone's interests are on the forum in terms of coin collecting? It should be interested to see the wide range!
I've bounced around a lot. Nowadays I mostly look at capped bust halves and German States coinage. I love thalers but I am mostly buying lower denomination pieces as they are more affordable and still interesting.
You can see my current collection here: https://coins.www.collectors-societ...SetListing.aspx?PeopleSetID=98228&Ranking=all https://coins.www.collectors-society.com/WCM/CoinCustomSetView.aspx?s=27305 https://coins.www.collectors-society.com/WCM/CoinCustomSetView.aspx?s=27306

Lately, Connecticut coppers and the Hibernia and Rosa Americana coinage. I do tend to jump around a bit sometimes though.
Nice to have you with us. There are plenty of opportunities to learn here. I collect Early Dated pre 1500 A.D. coins. here is part of my collection. https://www.cointalk.com/threads/pr...utm_campaign=Feed:+cointalk+(CoinTalk+Update)
Frankly speaking: All the coins that I coveted when I was one poor mo-fo! E.G. Greek ancients to Wheat-back Cents..... Trying like heck to keep Quality over Quantity and particularly proud of my complete set of Mexican 50 Peso gold coins, all NGC MS-63/65. Oh, an a PCGS MS-63 1916 SLQ FH. Plus a few ‘bits’ in between & a partridge in a pear tree. J.T.

U.S. varieties Pop out coins
Lincoln Cents (Wheat Reverse) are what I am into currently. Though, since I have got the key datoes I am beginning to gain an interest in other coins.
I would double-like this collection if I could. I have never seen anything quite like it. The toning on some of these coins seems exceptional. (I say seems because...really...what the heck do I know?? Nuttin!). The deep ruby color on at least one of them. Wowzers! Thanks for sharing.
I am a simple US type coin guy. I am particularly enamored with the seated series. I love gold type coins. And recently have become quite the collector of Byzantine Anonymous Folles.
I have been doing some reading and research on the seated series coins. I am taking a liking to them!
Take a look at some of the arrows and rays quarters and halves. They are common so they are affordable. But dang they make a fine looking type coin.
I collect all AV coinage from 670BC to present. I try to only go after MS quality coins. So far 900+ coins from all 27 centuries of coinage. Some examples from my collection.
I love coins. Good looking coins. Sharp coins. Newly minted coins. Old US coins. Medieval and Ancient coins. Japanese BU coins, Gold and Silver. Cheap coins. Free coins. Secret Santa Coins. Icelandic Kingdom coins. Error and variety coins. Jefferson Nickels. Ikes. Did I leave anything out?????
