<p>[QUOTE="Joshua Lemons, post: 24771597, member: 82388"]Almost any time I sell is for the purpose of raising funds for something better. I've had a few regrets in the past, but am comforted in knowing someone else is getting enjoyment out of the coin. I simply line everything up and go one by one and decide if i could live without it. There are some I'll likely never sell because the possibility of upgrading is slim. I'm currently in a transition period going from raw to certified coins. I've certified many of the raw coins in my collection I wish to keep. The others are lower grade and if I find a better example I can send in for grading or an already slabbed one, I'll sell the lower one to offset the cost. My goal is to collect as many different German States as I can. I'm currently at 82.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
