<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1485474, member: 26302"]Ever get on a "clean up my coin mess" kick? I am in the middle of one right now. I got all of my US coins in a SDB now, (save a few stragglers and bags of stuff), and started working on ancients. I burned through 9 bags, (100 count) of 2x2's and 8 coin boxes the last couple of days trying to get my purchases in some kind of order. I am making a dent, but now I have run out of boxes. I have given up really trying to keep them in pages for now since it would be just too unwieldly and I hate having to reorganize pages. Also, its a pain with ancients since some are too thick and the 2x2's want to fall out of pages.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think my goal will be to get them all in 2x2's. As for fully attributing all of them, yeah, that is a much longer process. Unless they came with attribution, most of these are getting "Byzantine" or "sassanian" at best, and I will get around to looking them all up later. </p><p><br /></p><p>So I wanted to thank the board for recommending JP's Corner.
