[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 24685115, member: 10461"]My collection was growing again- and outgrowing my safe deposit box- so this weekend I made the decision to purge about 1/3 of it and go back to a fixed-size collection, under “Box of 20” rules. (One has to go out if I want to bring a new coin in). Except it’s a “Box of 100” in this case. By keeping the collection to a fixed total of 100 coins, it’ll be more manageable and easier to organize. But also more challenging to cope with the decisions of what I have to drop each time I want to add one. That takes some detachment and discipline, and ain’t always easy. Still, it’s a healthy way to focus on quality over quantity. I now call my collection “[B]The Eclectic Hundred[/B]”.
