<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Carausius, post: 2592626, member: 76440&quot;]I am in awe of Volodya&#039;s disciplined approach.&nbsp; Looking at his exceptional coins, as well as other posters&#039; top 10s, I can&#039;t help but think that I buy too many coins each year!&nbsp; If I limited myself to coins that would make my top 10 list, I could assemble a spectacular, bigh-quality Roman Republican collection in 20-30 years. It&#039;s the often repeated quality-over-quantity debate. I have a tendancy to fall somewhere in the middle of the quality-quantity scale, and collecting for me is a constant internal struggle between two collector &quot;personalities&quot; - the quantity buyer vs. the quality buyer.&nbsp; This results in frequent buyer&#039;s remorse, particularly after coin shows, when I feel I could have bought one &quot;great&quot; coin if I&#039;d skipped several &quot;okay&quot; coins.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It might be fun if some of us posted our 10 biggest regret purchases of the year - the coins we wish we hadn&#039;t wasted our money on. Volodya, of course, is excused from that exercise. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie85" alt=":smuggrin:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
