[QUOTE="geekpryde, post: 25730598, member: 36248"]I enjoy write-ups like these that helps explain the thought process a collector has for buying a certain coin. There are so many different ways that we collect coins, were all chasing our own version of an ideal collection , and often I see pictures of a coin and don't know what goal of the collector has in mind. It makes it much more interesting to for me to know the goals and the likes and dislikes of the person. I always learn something and it's nice to have a little story to go with the eye candy photo. I also have several note fields in my coin database for coins that are either prettier than the photo suggests or uglier than the photo, or has a pet peeve problem of mine and that I want to upgrade or sell it at some point. Glad to hear I'm not the only one keeping track of this in the spreadsheet / software. :D[/QUOTE]
