<p>[QUOTE="Numis-addict, post: 1804726, member: 35784"]Finding one series to focus on is a good idea. The thing is that I am not getting the feeling that you are really excited to do that, at least the pair of series that you have suggested. If you like 'treasure hunting', a good idea might be roll searching with great frequency(I can tell you have already gotten ahold of this idea). That won't remedy your eyes, but coinzip's contraption might. You might attempt a set of modern bullion coins from one or multiple mints. If you like cherrypicking, another option would be to pick an older coin series with a wealth of varieties. Then you could do your treasure hunting while putting together a collection of non-bullion pieces. Of course, doing an older and most likely longer series of coins is not going to ease the effect of this hobby on your wallet(at least in US coins. However, it is important to note that in this hobby older does not always equal more valuable). All that said, I wish you luck in whatever you choose to pursue.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
