<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mikey Zee, post: 2284373, member: 72818&quot;]Before I begin my &#039;quality over quantity&#039; focus shift this coming New Year, I purchased several coins of the more &#039;pedestrian&#039; variety(ies). Of course, I find them interesting in a number of ways, while others may not have purchased them at any price and that is one of the joys of collecting as a hobby----we all have our own individual tastes and interests expressed in each and every coin---not to mention that damnable budget constraint we all have in one way or another.
