<p>[QUOTE=&quot;geekpryde, post: 25677894, member: 36248&quot;]So I made a few more decisions today regarding my Box-of-100, which is currently overflowing.</p><p><br /></p><p>I couldn&#039;t decide between two clad Washington Quarters, I love them both, and I only need 1 for the set.&nbsp; &nbsp; I also have multiple toned Kennedy&#039;s that I keep, many not in my Set.&nbsp; &nbsp; I also went a little too crazy with the US Philippines coins, as I only needed 1 for my Set but ended up with 5 so far as I decided I wanted all of the denominations.</p><p><br /></p><p>So long story short, I needed room in Box but also didn&#039;t want to sell some of the spill overs.&nbsp;&nbsp; (I did list a coin on eBay today, so there was SOME discipline.)</p><p><br /></p><p>I already had a &quot;Kennedy Keepers&quot; box with slots of 25 coins, and I have a few proof coins, like a 2023 Peace Proof, and others that just either never fit into my Type set, but that I also wanted to keep.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, here we are, I now have a half filled Box-of-25 side collection with it&#039;s only theme being <i>&quot;random coin I like and don&#039;t want to sell&quot;.</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p>I wont post those coins here for now, but I did remove several coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>I removed a 1976 $1 DOLLAR - EISENHOWER, TYPE 3, CLAD, BICENTENNIAL, &quot;T2 reverse&quot; NGC MS65 CAC approved coin that has been in my set for 10 years.&nbsp;&nbsp; I just don&#039;t really need the T1 vs T2 anymore as distinct coins, I already have 4 other Ike Types.</p><p><br /></p><p>(from PCGS)</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1642096[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>As an aside, it&#039;s really confusing to some people to have a &quot;Type 1&quot; and &quot;Type 2&quot; variety within the &quot;Type 3&quot; design.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Why not call it &quot;Reverse A&quot; and &quot;Reverse B&quot;, or &quot;Thick&quot; vs &quot;Thin&quot; ?&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Using &quot;Type&quot; to mean two things here can be very messy for us Type collectors.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie5" alt=":confused:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Many years ago, I made a similar decision to remove and sell the &quot;Wide Rim&quot; version of the SBA, as I thought it was too minor to call a Type.&nbsp;&nbsp; But sometime I regret that decision.&nbsp; Wish I had a misc-box-of-25 back then!&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie10" alt=":oops:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I also removed the 1 centavo, 10 centavos, 20 centavos, and 50 centavos MACARTHUR KM-184 (world coin) from the geekpryde Type Set.</p><p><br /></p><p>So that is -5 coins but I also added +3 coins recently, so overall I am now sitting at 97 coins which feels good to have some breathing room.</p><p><br /></p><p>I wonder, if the &quot;no drapery&quot; Liberty seated Types I am busy hunting down arent almost as minor as the T1 / T2 Ikes above.&nbsp;&nbsp; Maybe it&#039;s a fools errand and too minor to include, but I will think on that for a few years...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
