if you had to guess how many coins you have adopted

If you had to guess, how many coins do you have? 10? 100? 1000? I believe I have about 3000 or more.

    Let add that I am always giving some of them away to anybody that shows an interest in collecting. I use to give talks to cub scouts and I gave a lot of them away then
  • About 400 sample slabs.

  • Counting BU rolls, it would have to be in the many thousands. Just slabs and 2x2's I guess would be about 1000. But all I am really after in the end is 144 top end wheaties.image

    counting the big bag of foreign? (I save a representative handful from every trip to another country)
    probably 3000.

    maybe 1000 US coins.

    Counting furrin and circ wheats and buffalos, probably a couple thousand. Nicer coins about 200.

    Six slabs+ 12 VF Barber Halves+ 6 "O" Mint Seated Halves. That's it...
  • Around 100, not including wheaties and misc no dates. If anyone is tired of the burden of having 1000+ coins in their collection I offer a free scrap service, complete with an official certificate that proves they were scrapped! image

    You are doing well, subject 15837. You are a good person.
  • About 1000 not counting rolls.

  • I would hate to venture a guess, but if I had to it would be around 50,000 give or take.

    Coin Elite has 8200 individually listed and probably 6000 wheat cents not in CE, 300 Darkside misc. and 1000 other misc. U. S., rolls and such, not in database.

    I've reduced a tremendous number of coins in my collection. I think the total number I have is around 180 or so. And about half of those are ancient roman coins and misc coins I saved from my overseas trips. My "real" collection is about 100 coins (including some of those ancients and foreign)

    Probably over 20,000. Maybe even 30,000.

    (Edit: I thought you meant an all-time estimate. I only have a thousand or so right now.)

    My "personal collection" consists of exactly eight coins.

    (This does not count those on my Holey Coin Vest or my Holey Gold Hat, my detector finds, or my dealer stock at the mall).

    I hate it when you see my post before I can edit the spelling.

    Always looking for nice type coins
