[QUOTE="geekpryde, post: 26589373, member: 36248"]Here are the coins I purchased in 2025 [B]Box-of-25 Set (random coins I like): [/B] This coin was purchased for my Type set, but then I bought a new example. Problem is, I wax-and-wane on which coin I like better, so I wont be selling this "dupe" any time soon as it may very well end up back in my Set as the representative coin for the Type 4 Seated Liberty Dimes. [B][ATTACH=full]1694174[/ATTACH] [/B] I purchased a few Clad Roosevelt dimes for the Type Set, this one ended up not being selected for my main collection, but I also didn't want to sell it (yet). [ATTACH=full]1694175[/ATTACH] I love this coin. I was never planning on "upgrading" it, but something fell into my lap soon after buying this coin, when I wasn't even looking. As much as I love the "look" of this coin, it's now probably going to stay in the side collection for the long term.
