I love widgets!

Meltdown

I just can't seem to pass up nice looking cheap coins. I probably have way too much loose money tied up in stuff that does not really fit in an album collection or set build. I just got around to taking some shots of a few of the latest.
Feel free to share yours.

I used to have an 1881-S Morgan problem. I now have a 1938-D Buffalo Nickel problem.

I don't really have many of the early dates for Mercury dimes, not building a set currently but I had to buy this one when I came across it. I have quite a few coins like this. Sometimes I wonder if I would have finished some of the sets I'm building already if I could just keep myself from getting distracted. Oh well.

I can relate, I have no real need or place for this, (heck I'm not even a fan of Kennedy the man or the series) but just liked the way it looks, only have the GC photos for now.

Nothing wrong with liking the coins that you own.

Nice widgets. ⭐️

Nothing better than a coin with fantastic eye appeal and some age that is cheap. I’ll take a gorgeous late date Walker or 81-S Morgan any day.

****Each was bought for 5% over melt. This was long ago. I just put them in a Franklin holder
safe keeping so there are proofs in the mix.

I've thought about hoarding a particular coin/date/mint. Maybe 1878-cc Morgans. The 38-d buffalo is a cool coin to hoard. No shortage of high end coins.

If you like it, collect it.... No need to justify your acquisitions to anyone else. Have fun... Cheers, RickO

I don;t know if I have as big a problem as you have but I have 5 38-D buffs myself, no reason in the world to need 5 but I've got them.

It's just an affliction addiction. Nothing to be concern about. We feel your pain! 😂

Here's an album full of widgets. I decided buy this set during last year's Summer FUN show.
