I look at my coins by reviewing my digital registry albums.
It is a lot easier to flip the pages than opening up the actual Lighthouse albums, but
I do have to break out the actual coins when I do an upgrade and have to replace the old for the new.

Always a debate where to post a new picture, but I really do enjoy looking at my coins once in awhile. So after a few new additions, it was time to take the collection out from the bank, lay out the collection, determine where I may be going next, snap some photos, and then tuck them back away again.
This started a really a bullion accumulation type effort when prices for some were near melt $5/10/20; then expanded when finding a different rarer type ($3, classics head) at good prices, and then became something I continue to dabble with when I find a coin at a price I can justify. The last two additions were the C, and most recently a no motto $10. The sticky notes show the slots I hope to fill someday, but I am in no rush.

Hey @Mercury , we're practically at the same stage of our Peace Dollar collection. Other than the grade difference you have the 25-S and I have the 28-S.
I'm amazed to see so many NGC and PCGS slabs mixed together. Given that this is a PCGS board I would have expected to only see PCGS slabs. They do say, "Buy the coin, not the holder."
Do we wish we could easily convert all of our slabs to a universial slab with PCGS and NGC labels?

Impressive.

Kennedys are my quest...

I have done that on three occasions, just before I sold everything (except for some coins that are heirlooms).
