[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 2717369, member: 19250"]Collecting Variety coins is so rewarding...not knocking others whom fill albums as at one time I too filled holes in a series collection . But searching for varieties is like so exciting . Not just the find but the journey itself. It does take some doing....research , reading, and most of all training your brain to remember all the different varieties found in all the different series . I sort of think of it as the difference of being a medical doctor and being a veterinarian . Some may laugh......but to become a vet there's what 4 more years of med school compared to a GP. That said I would trust a vet over a GP any day :) as just think about the knowledge a vet must absorb compared to a regular doctor. Now I'm not a Vet or a doctor but I do love the research as well as learning . I enjoy the hunt as much as pulling the trigger. When you have a discovery coin" I've had 3 so far" you made a find no one can take from you. Even if you never make a discovery you sill are on the hunt to find those ddo's-ddr's, the mpd's,and rpm's.....don't forget the omm's and over dates! Are we nerds?.....maybe.... I like to think of us variety collectors as that part of the hobby that explore every centimeter of a coins surface searching for a new world find. So more so explorers who can be a tad bit nerdy. :)[/QUOTE]
