Message:: [QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 3241489, member: 10461"]November 21, 2018: Update Summary We have had 5 arrivals and 3 departures since last time. What was a "box of twenty" collection for years has now officially doubled to become a "box of forty" since mid-2016, when I decided to drop the 20-coin limit and let it grow.  It still remains something of a revolving door- I've let some really nice pieces go- but that is sometimes necessary to acquire other nice pieces, since I don't put very much of my disposable income into this and have to grow the collection by selling and swapping.  (And I've never been terribly good at saving up for bigger purchases, though dealers with layaway options are nice to do business with.) Number of coins as of last update: 38Number of coins as of this update: 40 Here's what's came in since <a href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/lord-marcovans-eclectic-box-collection-as-of-june-16-2018.318245/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/lord-marcovans-eclectic-box-collection-as-of-june-16-2018.318245/">last time</a>: <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> <a href="https://collectivecoin.com/lordmarcovan/7my2PhjhXCrR9PLbqB5k/X573wTgfXSYzUyBRF230" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://collectivecoin.com/lordmarcovan/7my2PhjhXCrR9PLbqB5k/X573wTgfXSYzUyBRF230" rel="nofollow">Sicily (Norman Kings): gold tari of Guglielmo I ("William the Bad"), ca. 1154-1166 AD</a><img src="https://collectivecoin.imgix.net/BdZ5v7F9QW26A0nYZ6ZZ_Guglielmo%20I.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />Presently uncertified;
