[QUOTE="smullen, post: 570366, member: 5165"]I don't think any one of those fits exactly, so here goes.... Not sure how to describe my Collecters Status.. Been collecting for about 5 years.. Working on the following sets: Jefferson Nickel Proofs 1950 -Date (Highest grade I can afford, slabbed NGC) Morgans 1878 - 1921 (MS-65 or better, Slabbed NGC) Susan B. Anthony Proof Set 1979- 1999 (PF-69s, Slabbed PCGS) Sacagawea 2000 -Date (PF-69s, Slabbed PCGS) Presidential Dollars 2007 - Present (PF-69s, Slabbed NGC) SAE 1986-Date Uncirculated (MS-69 or better, Slabbed NGC) SAEs 1986-Date Proofs (PF-69 or better, Slabbed NGC) Us Type Set in a Dansco Binder (best condition I can pick each coin up in) Also, Modern Commens in Mint Boxes SAEs Mint Boxes Proof Sets - In US Mint Packages Mint Sets - In US Mint Packages American Legacy Proof Sets - In US Mint Packages Some special sets from the mint if I like'd them and could get my hands on them for a decent price... Tons of ungraded grade coins in the lil 2x2 flips I pretty much collect any US coin I can get my hands on.... I don't consider myself a begainer/hobbyiest not a professional as I don't know enough about Grading or Numismatics or spend enough money to be at that level.... Fun, is the main reason I collect... I love to complete sets and be able to look at the different years, mints, styles and surfaces of the many coins... I think they are all sort of an art.... Investment??? Not sure as I would love to think that if I ever part ways and sell off any of my treasures, I'd profit somewhat, but I do not have a toneframe in mind as to when I'd think about selling something and I'd buy a coin, just because I liked it even if the bandwagon, did not see it as a worthy investment... I also collect Bullion Bars and rounds... Atleast one of every 10oz and 1 oz Bar and Round I can get my hands on, some 1 oz rounds I have a tube/roll of... Lots of Silver Art Bars too... I think I just like Shiney things.... Mostly, I collect because I enjoy it...[/QUOTE]
