<p>[QUOTE="buckeye73, post: 3261786, member: 93155"]Having collected all types of US and World coins, tokens, and paper money over a period of 60 years, with pauses from high school thru college and early years of marriage, I am truly a Generalist Collector. The initial general effort concentrated on completing sets of US small cents thru half dollars post Civil War; also Complete Morgan and Peace Dollars. Seated Liberty coins were somewhat lacking. However, I also had a 15 year period of Large Cent collecting by Sheldon and Newcomb varieties, in which Middle Dates 1816 to 1839 lack 3 varieties being complete. For the past 20 years I have collected generally 1700’s thru 1900’s World Coins by type, attempting to find the key date and/or high grade coin of type when feasible. Thus, I could be described as both a Generalist and Specialist collector. As a result, I feel like a kid in a candy store at my favorite LCS.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
