<p>[QUOTE="Cherd, post: 1464412, member: 24754"]I've always been a collector, and have collected a variety of different things. I've come to realize that sticking to fewer quality items is much better than accumulating a bunch of junk. If you have no quality restrictions on your collection then things tend to get out of hand and your collection loses focus. Every once in a while I will go through my collection, cull out and sell the rags, and buy something better. Last thing that I need is a closet full of common wheats, state quarters, and dateless buffalo nickels.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is one of the reasons that I switched to type coin collecting. My entire collection will consist of one example of each type. I am in the process of selling everything that doesn't fit, and will sell the old coin anytime I upgrade. The total size of my collection will be restricted to ~125 coins or so, thereby enforcing quality.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
