[QUOTE="Sallent, post: 3366744, member: 76194"][USER=74968]@Orfew[/USER] is right to do so. I've refocused my collection twice. Once when I got out of medieval and Indian coinage to focus more on Roman coinage, and I'm currently doing so by selling off some of my Gordian III and a few other coins to put the money towards beefing up my Greek coinage. My collection has been the better for it. With my initial refocusing, I was able to strengthen my Roman collection to levels I only dreamed of, and with the current refocusing I hope to strengthen my Greek collection as well, while still maintaining the bulk of the solid Roman collection I've built. Sometimes a little selling here and there is not a bad thing, especially if the money is used wisely to focus and strengthen your collection in new areas you find exiting and appealing.
