<p>[QUOTE=&quot;stevereecy, post: 4811205, member: 19884&quot;]Here’s something old and something new. </p><p><br /></p><p>I’ve been collecting for years and I have Dansco albums filled with a hodgepodge of coins. But looking over them, There isn’t&nbsp; a lot there that I’m in love with inside them.&nbsp; I actually think I’m going to sell most of them off to fund this project. </p><p><br /></p><p>Here’s the coin that started at all. When I bought this many years ago I fell in love with it because it was so beautiful. I like original-skin coins.&nbsp; This one made me rethink coin collecting, which is how I found the box of 20 concept.&nbsp;&nbsp; I’d rather have 20 coins like this one than all of my albums.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1167129[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1167128[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>When I bought this Florin several years ago, they were cheaper than today. Right now if I had to purchase this coin it might break my budget for a single coin. </p><p><br /></p><p>—————————</p><p><br /></p><p>And now today’s acquisition. I just got this in the mail today. It’s no coincidence that it’s similar to the Florin. (Yes, I’m a “Vicky Chaser”) This one was also the bleeding edge of my per coin budget, but I thought it was a good mix of numismatic value, gold content and beauty.&nbsp; I’m not ashamed to say that I think I got an excellent deal on it. In fact because every coin potentially may be sold in the future to upgrade I am trying to keep a sharp eye out for bargain coins to help defray upgrade costs.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1167132[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1167130[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1167131[/ATTACH]</p><p>I like the toning on it. I love toned gold and hope to upgrade into some nice toned gold beauties. </p><p><br /></p><p>More later:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
