<p>[QUOTE="ddddd, post: 8595196, member: 22377"]Some might recall my box of 20 threads; I like to mix it up and have a little of everything as opposed to sticking to one series.

[QUOTE="ddddd, post: 8595196, member: 22377"]Some might recall my box of 20 threads; I like to mix it up and have a little of everything as opposed to sticking to one series. I know it is hard to limit any collection to a box of 20 but I thought it would be fun to try with world silver coins (and that can allow me to expand my other box of 20, so as you can tell, I'm stretching the rules of the concept :p). My goals here are that it has to be a silver coin, a design that I find interesting, and an eye appealing coin. I'd like to hear some thoughts on the following list-which of these would you include, which would you drop, and what could be a potential replacement (for something dropped)? Currently there is a heavier lean towards Latin America but I believe there is a solid balance of most areas (although I know some regions aren't represented at all). Pillar Dollar (8R) Mexico 8 Reales Mexico Caballito Peso CAR 8R Panama Balboa Guatemala Peso El Salvador Peso (Columbus) Cuba ABC Peso Dominican Republic Peso Maria Theresa Thaler (1780 Restrike) Poland 10 Zloty ("Jadwiga") Latvia 5 Lati (1929-1932) Eritrea Tallero Ethiopia Birr French Indochina Piastre British Trade Dollar US Philippine Peso Japan Yen Hawaii Dollar US Trade Dollar And here are some from the above list that I already have (most of these are in the "regular" box of 20 and would now move to the "world" box of 20) [IMG]https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/editor/kk/lursqvesy51l.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/editor/wj/mw6wg0ofhm5m.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/editor/7b/65msj0ja257w.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/editor/vm/4h3hezjd5a2t.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/editor/mw/8q5dp3mf3mg2.png[/IMG] [IMG]https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/editor/pl/nxfhoeiym0t8.png[/IMG] [IMG]https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/editor/h7/ovx5f45o7z3q.png[/IMG] [IMG]https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/editor/be/7irggqy8ui6w.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
