How much in coins have you had?...

I was just wondering something. How much would the value be for all the coins I have owned? Then I thought, dang, what's that with respect to my current annual salery. It came up to be about 13 times my (net) annual salery. I'm 31. Anyone else care to share where they'd be on that scale?

    Well, as a student...I manage to net about -2k a year.

    Therefore, my collection is worth alot more than my net. salary.

    Ok, excluding my house the recent divorce has driven my net worth temporarily negative. So the ratio of my current coins to my net worth is a negative number...I don't keep good enough records to ever know the total value of all the coins I've had...and does bullion count?

    To ratio to my salary what are you using for market value? Greysheet? PCGS value guide?

    If you count bullion I can probably get up to about 1 annual salary...

    Current value = $50,000 +. All coins ever owned (I am relatively new) sold + current coins = $75,000 +

    Lets see that is about 1/6th of my annual income! - Roarous laughter -

    Arco - dang! If you are serious, what do you do for a living?

    Me? Total value ever? I would have to put it around ~$20K

    total value of current collection is pushing 30K about 1/4 annual slave pay!
    PEACE! This is the first day of the rest of your life.

    Same here. It's slower progress, but it's still just as satisfying as having a regular job/ salary.

    Since when does a slave make $120,000 net per year?

    Approx 10 x net based on when I had a j-o-b.
    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.

    Greetings,

    I have just in gold coins about 1500 of them roughly. They range in weight quarter ounce or less. Of coarse, alot of silver and just finished my lincoln collection complete except for 1922 plain. Value?

    The total value of my collection is about 20% of my gross yearly salary and about 3% of net worth.
