Both Emperors are also on my favorites list (but then again, they are on most people&#039;s). The reaction I have looking at these coins is immediate, I immediately look at them and think &quot;wow, that would be a great piece to add to my collection&quot; and that is one of the measures I take into account when buying coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>I either have this immediate draw to it and know I like it or I don&#039;t. If I have to think about it, I pass. That has been part of my strategy so far, as someone who still has a ton to learn. </p><p><br /></p><p>Regarding the one coin per emperor idea, I think it would be rather cool to have one coin from every emperor (plus I only turned 27 a couple of months ago, so it would give me a decades long project to work on). However, I am not going to force purchases of coins I don&#039;t particularly like, or coins that I don&#039;t think are selling for a good value, just to check names off the list. That would defeat the purpose of collecting things I truly enjoy looking at, and that I can hold in my hand to feel a connection to history.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
