<p>[QUOTE="Kasia, post: 3595476, member: 31533"]I no longer separate by date, etc. Because every time you handle a coin you can cause issues with it (especially if you are tossing them into a bin or such with others) and because once you know what you are looking for, your brain automatically goes to what to look for on particular dates, so there is no need to waste time sorting. For example if I am first looking at a LMC with the obverse side, I see the date and mm and I think of what is unique to that date. If I see the reverse side, I look at that and before turning it over, try to tell what date series it is from the reverse. That helps. That is how I spotted my 1999 WAM in CHR.... Saw the reverse and noticed it was wide am, thinking what dates should have them, but when it got turned over and the date did not correspond to what I expected from seeing the reverse, there was that error found![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
