<p>[QUOTE="Hiddendragon, post: 2615251, member: 25270"]Have you ever seen those shows like "American Pickers" where a collector says he's ready to sell, but then every time they try to buy something he doesn't want to sell it? I had kind of a similar feeling. I was trying to cut down on some of my coins that are less important to me. For a long time I pretty much wanted to get one of everything from everywhere, and eventually I started to re-evaluate my philosophy and try to focus more on things that I really like and cut down on some of the rest. So today I was looking at a few albums and trying to cut them down, but when I start it turns out way more of them speak to me than I expect them to. I had an easier time getting rid of the post 1950s coins, but the older ones are really hard for me to part with. I don't know how some people can have their entire collection be like 50 coins. I can't even cut my Swedish collection that low.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
