<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jetshack, post: 440007, member: 11725&quot;]I&#039;m kind of all over the place as well. </p><p><br /></p><p>For lack of a better way to describe it I have 2 collections. </p><p><br /></p><p>My &quot;Real&quot; collection is composed of the sets that I&#039;ve finished or am actively working on.&nbsp; Right now I&#039;m only actively working on a MS63+ Roosevelt set.&nbsp; That set is in an album on my bookshelf along with my Lincoln Cent, Liberty Nickel, Barber dime, Washington Quarter, Peace Dollar,&nbsp; and Ikes (which are all complete).</p><p><br /></p><p>My &quot;Other&quot; collection is stored in a filing cabinet.&nbsp; I have a drawer for cents, another for nickels and dimes, another for quarters / halves / dollars, and the last drawer is for foreign / proof sets / mint sets.</p><p><br /></p><p>When I run across something which I&#039;m not &quot;Really&quot; collecting but I know is a good buy, or something that I know I could sell on eBay for a profit I put it in my other collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>Then when I finish up a set in my &quot;Real&quot; collection I look through my &quot;Other&quot; collection and take stock of the situation.&nbsp; If something jumps out at me as being neat, that&#039;s what ends up becoming the next part of the real collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>I haven&#039;t taken inventory of what&#039;s in the filing cabinet in a while.&nbsp; I suspect once I&#039;ve finished the Roosies I&#039;ll be starting a Barber Half collection as I know I&#039;ve got 20 or 30 different ones sitting in there (some semi-keys) and I know I like Barbers (had a blast completing the Dimes).&nbsp; But then I also know I&#039;ve got about 3/4&#039;s of the IHC collection finished sitting in there, and I have at least two complete circulated Jefferson sets (I&#039;d like the &quot;Real&quot; one to be FS), etc...</p><p><br /></p><p>Long story short if you asked me what I was currently collecting I&#039;d say Roosies, BUT I&#039;m constantly picking up stuff other than what I&#039;m currently collecting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
