What to do, what to do...

Here's my situation. I am currently collecting Walking Liberty half dollars 41-47, Lincoln cents 09-33, Buffalo nickels, Sac dollars, new nickels and modern proof silver sets. What would you dump in favour for another series to complete. Say dump Walkers for Buffs or dump the moderns to complete the Lincolns. I'm just at an impass and would really only like to have two or possibly three sets to keep that are complete in VF to XF with Buffs and Lincolns and MS for the Walkers. Advice welcome.

    Me personally...I'd dump the Sacs, new nickels and modern silver proofs all together....after all...THEY'RE MODERN! The Lincolns are a pain in the butt series with so damn many of them. I'd go with the Walkers or Buffs...leaning towards the Walkers just because I like them better. Focus on one set, complete it then move to another. image

    I had too many things going on for awhile too. If you don't REQUIRE the funds, rather than "dumping" anything, I'd suggest you just put them on the back burner and let them "mature". Concentrate on what makes you happy, and eventually you might tire of that....move on to what makes you happy then.

    I just hate to hear people say, "Gee...I wish I still had that".
