    No idea. I’ve never counted, especially if you consider all the rolls and loose pieces hanging around. Maybe a few thousand?

    If you consider each wheatstalk as a 'piece', my collection would be in the six figures.

    Probably 100ish at the moment. 1/3 of them are my "Focused" collection, the rest are just neat cir finds or pre-65 90% silver.

    Too many variables.

    Probably around 300 if rolls count as one each and a small box of foreigns from the 80s counts as like 5.

    264, all in PCGS holders. Of those eligible for a CAC, 100% have them. FUN!!!!!!!

    A day without fine wine and working on your coin collection is like a day without sunshine!!!

    My collecting “Pride & Joy” is my PCGS Registry Dansco 7070 Set:

    Excluding the piles of junk...not too many right now. Trying to increase the number of pieces ASAP though. The lack of coin shows doesn't exactly help but that could be a while before that situation is resolved.

    Not really looking for much these days but if I were, it might be a toner. :smile:

    From a high of around 2000 certified coins, I’m down to a box of 20 or so.

    I've been watching this series on Netflix called Hoarders. I'm not saying it's true for everyone but there's a lot of hoarding in coin collecting. I for one have to question if I need to make half the purchases I do.

    A lot of junk and mint sets/special sets/reverse proof sets/anniversary sets ... sets I don't even know where to find them :smile:
    Box of 30 in PCGS holders
    Box of 2 in ICG holders (1999-W $10 unfinished proof die gold eagle and 2000 Glenna Goodacre presentation finish)
    2 US Mint holders (100th Anniversary National Park $5 and General McArthur $5)
    In capsule (2006 reverse proof gold eagle)
    UK 1970 proof set which I bought because of the big red copper cent

    ... and I am still waiting for the re-strike 1804 silver dollar
