My "Eclectic Hundred" (Box of 100) as of July 2, 2022

lordmarcovanlordmarcovan Posts: 43,658 ✭✭✭✭✭

I posted a link to the gallery a few days back on World Coins, but since I've added US coins as well, I'll link this post up to the summary thread I did on CoinTalk, which has all the pictures in a row, suitable for scrolling.

https://www.cointalk.com/threads/lord-marcovans-eclectic-hundred-as-of-july-2-2022.397801/

The coins are in chronological order and the earliest US coin is an 1804 Spiked Chin half cent, so you'll need to scroll down through the earlier stuff to get to the more "modern" US material.

This has come a long way since it was a Box of 20, but I think I'm now going to pause again and stick with a quantity of 100, at least for a while. One in, one out. (In other words, I gotta sell one every time I add one). This will cause me to work on upgrading for a while.

Thanks for looking, if you do. (Or if you did already, via the World forum link).

    Sorry to send you to CoinTalk, but it would have taken me 30 years to post that here. LOL

    @lordmarcovan ☺️
    You started back in 2013 with 30 coins? It’s almost a decade in the making!
    I love the free style as you please as you go 🥰
    I also like the fact that all of your beautiful pieces could be touched and handled without any reservation.
    I have a few raw Peace I love more than the expensive slabbed ones cause I could feel them.

    I got to go back to CoinTalk to read some more…..so fascinated with your story ❤️

    Sadly, most of the coins in that treasurebox montage are sold off, but there are still a few seen there that are part of the collection still.

    That is a recent addition from NEN. Upgraded from my former AU53 Feuchtwanger.

    feuchtwanger cents and 3c are cool, but please don't wave them around anyones face without prior consent.

    Star of the show is the Aussie florin. That incused date is awesome!

    @lordmarcovan is so blessed to possess a special coin like this as well as the ones I posted earlier part of the thread ☺️

    What a terrifically eclectic set, and really well presented. Proof positive that there’s no one “right” way to collect. Well done!

  • rickoricko Posts: 98,724 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Outstanding set LordM.... That set will require several visits in order to absorb the real quality and beauty you have assembled. Thanks for the link, Cheers, RickO

    Awesome set! Great photos too.

  • nwcoastnwcoast Posts: 2,880 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Super impressive collection!
    I LOVE the time span, artistry and geographic dimensions repressed.
    Really a beautiful assortment of coins.
    Thank you for sharing. I enjoyed looking through it very much!

    Happy, humble, honored and proud recipient of the “You Suck” award 10/22/2014
