What kind of coins have you collected?

What kind of coins have you collected? Could you show me them? I know that persistence is not easy thing, so why do you insist on this collecting habit?

I thought you’d never ask. I have two years of RMDs to spend on whatever I want (thanks to amzn, nflx, aapl, tsla & others).

Here is a sample of what I’ve bought so far:

Thanks, but all the credit goes to the bull market during the last 10+ years. W/out it, it’s all for naught.

All of them? Ha ha ha

I collect pre-33 US gold, late 1700's US copper, and 19th century US key dates thus far. I've enjoyed collecting for the art, the value, and the tangible piece of history you can hold in your hand. What was happening in XXXX, what could this buy, and who may have used it in commerce?

Here's a few of mine:

I'm mostly a type collector, but like Morgans and pre33 gold...

@ricko Keep on collecting habit!

@ matt_dac They are unbelievable delicate and preserved in good condition.

@asheland I like silver coins.

@ARCO I'd like to ask where did you get them? Buying them from exhibition?

Heritage Auctions - HA.Com
Ebay (in the past)
Various coin dealers.

I started simple for many years buying lower end coins in the $10-$80 range. Then the addiction took over and like a crack addict trolling back alley streets for drugs, I lost all control.
