<p>[QUOTE="Ancientnoob, post: 3328038, member: 44140"] <ol> <li>- What metrics do you choose to add coins?<br /> <br /> - Do you have a rough size of a collection in mind (10, 100, 5000, 1000, 50,000 coins?) I never really had a set number in mind, my collection size was large based on opportunity of acquisition and availability of funds. Currently I have about 200 coins.<br /> <br /> - Do you work off of a "wantlist"? How has your wantlist changed over time? How rigid are you with following your wantlist and plans? I have always had a pretty extensive want list. My Vcoins global check out was an impressive number at one time. I often dont stick to the wantlist, to the point where I might be to flighty to have a real solid list. <br /> <br /> - What's the longest you've waited to find a coin you've wanted? How long have you been waiting for your current target? At least five years and about 6 months for a current target.<br /> <br /> - What portion of purchases do you make privately vs from auctions?<br /> <br /> 25/75</li> <li><br /> <br /> - How often do you handle your coins or look at your pictures?</li> <li>Some almost never some all the time.<br /> - How much time do you spend searching for lost pedigrees?
