[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 2747612, member: 10461"]Photobucket has indeed turned into a big bucket of... ermm... stinky poo-poo. There were a lot of fun, cheap <$50 coins in here, Cointessa. I did all this in my first year! The Otho was the only coin over $500 (=575). There were some other 3-figure pieces. Caligula and the gold Zeno at the end were both $350-ish at the time. But a great deal of this stuff was in the $30-50 range. There were some $10s and even a few single-digit coins. I went hog-wild in the beginning and snapped up anything that sounded reasonable to me. Only later did I slow down some and try to focus a bit more on quality (eye appeal). That's why this set is rather inconsistent. But it was a proud accomplishment for such an enthusiastic novice. Mistakes? Aside from grabbing some ugly pieces, I think I did OK. Stuck with trusted dealers on VCoins, almost exclusively. Had fun. Learned a ton.[/QUOTE]
