Message:: [QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 3296537, member: 10461"]A week into the new year, I realized I had made no resolutions. Perhaps that's all for the best, but I've now decided to make one involving my coin collection: I will buy no more coins for my collection until everything I have now is properly organized. This means:<ul> <li>Everything not yet submitted for third-party certification must be sent off to PCGS or NGC.</li> <li>Coins in defective holders must be reholdered.  (I'll be having a word with you about trapped-gas-related slab bulging, NGC.)</li> <li>Everything must have satisfactory photographs, including secondary photos of the slabs themselves.  </li> <li>At least the proof and brilliant coins (if not everything else) should have short video clips shot of them as well, which can be made into animated GIF images to better display luster, toning, mirrors, etc.</li> <li>Everything must receive a brief writeup, if only a short description of the technical details, but preferably also a short 1-4 sentence paragraph about the coin's history and/or backstory about why I added it to my collection, etc.</li> <li>The albums for the collection (for when it is out for display and not in the safe deposit box) need to be completed.  I have begun working on them and will post pictures when they're done.</li> </ul>Though mine is a small <a href="https://collectivecoin.com/lordmarcovan/7my2PhjhXCrR9PLbqB5k" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://collectivecoin.com/lordmarcovan/7my2PhjhXCrR9PLbqB5k" rel="nofollow">collection</a> which only just reached 50 pieces, I've been in need of a "consolidation phase" for a while.[/QUOTE]
