Go to a coin show. Go to the local coin store more than once a year. Buy an MS 64 lustrous Monroe. Buy a nice lustrous Standing liberty quater. Have fun looking for deals on nice commems.
1. Continue to learn about the series I'm interested in 2. Focus on Morgans, gold coins, and any coin that appeals strongly to me 3. Be smarter in how I spend and not be indiscriminate
"My friends who see my collection sometimes ask what something costs. I tell them and they are in awe at my stupidity."

(Putin 1/17) Gone but not forgotten. IGWT, Speedy, Bear, BigE, HokieFore, John Burns, Russ, TahoeDale, Dahlonega, Astrorat, Stewart Blay, Oldhoopster, Broadstruck, Ricko, Big Moose.
Cut the wifes allowance and buy all the MS67 1941 walking Liberties i can get my hands on. She spends to much money anyway. Who needs food we can live on Love

I'm going to keep filling the voids in my proof Kennedy set, and keep buying other coins that catch my eye (which slows down my efforts to fill the voids in my proof Kennedy set).
1. finish my PF rosie sets 2. finish my Unc Frankie set 3. get a job 4. get my own place to live. 5. maybe, buy a coin shop and start my own business 6. fill up my 2 slab boxes. right now i have 6 slabs.
LucyBop, what whould this place be like if you became very shy, timid, and soft spoken? i don't think i would have any reason to come and post here anymore.
...write something so funny, so gut-busting, so chuckle inducing, that even The Most Serious Numismatist In The World... will have the corner of his mouth twitch, just a little.

By God, I think you've hit on something here, Neil. A whole new grading system based on "gruntage." MS-63 will equal "moderate grunt of approval, 65- "slightly higher pitched grunt, and 67 & up- "major gruntage/ultimate grunt."
1. take my first stab at being a dealer. 2. go see my brother when he gets back from afganstan 3. get a part time job so I can afford #1,2 4. pay off my explorer(SUV) 5. maybe have a little money left to get closer to finishing my small cent set(1857-2003)

1. Finish my thesis and get a job (underlying motive here is I can spend more money on coins then). 2. Attend a coin show. 3. Buy a 1931-S Lincoln for my set. 4. Buy both 1932-D and 1932-S Washington quarters to complete that set finally.
5. Spend less time sitting at the computer surfing through auctions, reading meaningless threads.
Complete my Washington Quarter set(about five dates left) and get 10/20 of mt most wanted list. This could be tough though because as some of you have mentioned, every coin I buy cost double because I have to justify iy to the wife!
