I am self employed and in March of 2020 when covid struck I was put into the position of knowing (for however long), I would have to get by without my primary income. ( I own a cleaning service that specializes in refinishing commercial tile floors.) community centers, hair salons, bars, resturants, government offices, you name it; all closed or no longer needing my services.</p><p> On the plus side I did own approximately 125 thousand dollars in certified coins. Everything was put on the table. Every 90 days i did a Great Collections sale. When the situatuion improved and I was once again able to go back to my regular work load, I had about 15 thousand in coins left.</p><p> I did not spend that time away from the hobby though. I have lived thru several crisis situations in my life and I knew someday the wheel of life would turn. I spent my time putting together exactly what "NEW" coins I wanted and have since late Spring of 2022, been building my new sets.</p><p> I do hope to explain as I go just why I sought certain coins and where they fit in my collecting journey.
