[QUOTE="Curtisimo, post: 5604066, member: 83845"]I greatly value the collector tags that have come with my coins, especially the ones that identify the collection it came from and includes all provenance information known at the time. I know that some collectors don’t think anyone would care that a coin came from their collection but I guarantee you somewhere down the road someone who owns your coins will care. At least one weirdo has shown that they do (me), as illustrated in this thread I posted earlier this year. [B][SIZE=5][URL='https://www.cointalk.com/threads/tripolis-probus-finally-photographed-my-amcc-2-win.373092/']Tripolis Probus: Finally Photographed my AMCC 2 Win[/URL][/SIZE][/B] [ATTACH=full]1241992[/ATTACH] I agree with some of the above comments that your tag might look better if it were simplified and the space taken up with borders were reduced. I wouldn’t necessarily try to model your collection tag after a dealer tag as they both serve two separate functions. I would think you don’t need the labels “Metal”, “Mint”, “Purchased From” etc. as it should be mostly obvious to you what AR Denarius means without labels. I also think you might benefit from putting all your purchase info under provenance and making that field bigger. If you ever get a coin with an extensive provenance you’ll want more space in that field.[/QUOTE]
