What is your primary collecting focus?

This question popped into my head and I'm curious as to what is the most popular collecting niche here..

I voted US Coins, based on the word "Primary" (& my tonnage versus the others), with the caveat that I am not bare in any of those categories.

 

Primarily, everything.
(See what I did there? Self Hug for cleverness.)

 

Mex - Au,~~~ US - Walkers & SLQ's
J.T.

 

US Coins issued for circulation.

 

I said other, my main focus is pre Federal, colonial and state coinage. Particularly Connecticut coppers but I dabble in others as well.

 

Primary collection is error FRN star notes. Secondary is error coins of any country.

 

I currently have 34 specific Seated coins in my personal
tracking lists.

 

Fifty years I had been a fully content US collector….. Then I discovered CT and have since wondered off the straight and narrow.

 

I have collecting interests in all of the choices shown in the survey plus a few more.

 

I'm a real sucker for pretty shiny coins. I like cents, dimes (Pre-FDR), quarters, halves, and American Silver Eagle One Ounce Proof Coins and Uncirculated ones as well. Ever since I bought Mercanti's American Silver Eagles book, "American Silver Eagles, A Guide to the U.S. Bullion Coin Program, 4th Edition.

 

Eye appeal is my focus. It can be an ancient a token or a US coin, even a modern.

 

...directly into the wide and meandering!

 

@Randy Abercrombie,

Randy, aren't we a little nuts for being up this early on a Sunday morning messing with CT!

 

US half dollars...especially capped bust-lettered edge.

 

this is the boat I find myself in. Several ancients without any real focus, foreign, and US. I do have a couple collection ls I am working on with US coins, but I have affordable ones for those. That’s when my attention starts to wander.

 

I don't have a primary interest anymore. I have a hoard that grows weekly.

 

Just look at the number of post in each forum. That should give you an idea of what is most popular.

 

As a side collection I am accumulating coin club tokens and medals as well as spinner tokens. I like o collect things that I know I will never get a complete "set" of. I don't even know how many of these items have been produced, but I bet it is a boat load!!
