<p>[QUOTE=&quot;geekpryde, post: 3760266, member: 36248&quot;]I am working on something similar, but not nearly as ambitious as yours.&nbsp; &nbsp; I consider this just my side-coin collection, as my primary focus (and most of all the money) goes to my Type-set.&nbsp; &nbsp; Hard to capture it in photos, but for some reason I am just absolutely lured in by BU / GEM blast white Silver Washington Quarters, like a moth to a flame.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I only am trying to build 1932-1964 as I personally can&#039;t stand Clad Washingtons, to each their own.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Some years are so easy, you can get an MS65 coin for under $15, other years are HARD and or/ more money than I care to spend.</p><p><br /></p><p>I just went to a coin show this past weekend, and since its a small show in Maine, there really aren&#039;t a ton of TPG / CAC coins in Types that I need, but I knew full well my side-collection could pick up some simple BU Washingtons.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; I bought 5 from the same dealer I always use at the coin shows.&nbsp;&nbsp; I tend to only pickup a few a year, if even that.&nbsp;&nbsp; Just a very casual collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>I dont have a pic of the new coins, but I use this collection to sort of satisfy my need for pretty shiny things while I wait and wait and wait to see if I can ever add a new coin to my Type set.&nbsp; &nbsp; Basically I think of this as a fancy bullion collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>When I got back into collecting around 2012, and bought a whole slew of the cheaper ones.&nbsp;&nbsp; A few turned out to be AU, some even cleaned, but most were nice MS64 ish examples.&nbsp; &nbsp; I later culled out the bad coins and replaced them.&nbsp; You can see some of those coins here:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1007507[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1007516[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Congradulations on finishing your set.</p><p><br /></p><p>One thought would be to send ALL of the coins into PCGS, get them ALL TrueViews and reslabbed in matching holders.&nbsp; &nbsp; That way you have the instant digital album and full set cohesion.</p><p><br /></p><p>What I did when I finished my full set of Kennedy Proofs PR69 Ultra Cameo is sell it whole.&nbsp;&nbsp; I was just &quot;done&quot; with it at that point.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; You may find yourself with a similar situation eventually.</p><p><br /></p><p>Best of Luck,</p><p><br /></p><p>Matt[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
