<p>[QUOTE="Orfew, post: 3366621, member: 74968"]I have noticed over the last few months that coins outside of my 12 Caesars collection are not getting any attention.

I looked at the box a few days ago and realized that I have not looked at those in weeks because there was a nice thick layer of dust on the outside of the box. This is no way for nice coins to be treated. On the other hand I have been spending some time every day looking at my 12 Caesars collection and thinking about upgrades. On top of this I have become fascinated with the minuscule differences in legends and other details on the 12 Caesars coins. Members like [USER=82616]@David Atherton[/USER] and [USER=88526]@Jay GT4[/USER] have been inspiring with their pickups of rare Flavian coins, and this feels like an area I would like to explore in more depth and detail.

[QUOTE="Orfew, post: 3366621, member: 74968"]I have noticed over the last few months that coins outside of my 12 Caesars collection are not getting any attention.

I have not decided how to get rid of them yet, but they are doing no one any good inside the red box. Does anyone else have experience with refocussing their collection?[/QUOTE]
