<p>[QUOTE=&quot;belg_jos, post: 190496, member: 6360&quot;](1) I collect errors, coin-art (modified coins) and forgeries from Belgium and The Netherlands. In the errorworld, I prefer offcenters, double strikes, large cud&#039;s and strikes on wrong planchets. I don&#039;t like clips or other planchet flaws, but I keep them anyway.</p><p><br /></p><p>(2) I try to find one of each denomination, and will give it an extra effort, if an errorcoin is offered of a denomination I don&#039;t already have in my collection. But other errors are always welcome (because they are all one of a kind!)</p><p><br /></p><p>(3) Of the major errors, I collect what I see offered. Of smaller errors, like diebreaks and cud&#039;s, I&#039;m not that bothered. Varieties, my other speciality. Of these I want as much as I can find, so I can write a book about them when I&#039;m old and gray, and get a nice price for them, when I sell my collection for my well-earned retirement <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>(4) Not an option here in Belgium. Varieties and small errors aren&#039;t that popular here. They hardly get noticed. And the Euro is not for me. </p><p><br /></p><p>(5) I like them raw, because you can touch the coin, and fully apreciate them. When I would sell them (just before the retirement), I would have them slabbed, I guess. They do fetch a higher premium then. But for now, the cardboard coinholders will do just fine.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
