Yes I know that my mind is going but I like to watch it leave. These are the new ones I have gotten
in for the past few weeks and a few still on the way.

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

We can talk about an intervention if the condition persist into the new year.

No motivation at all, I am just living the dream of coin collectiing and "Collecting What I Want" and not worrying about pleasing,
impressing, thinking about making money or any other idealistic ways other collectors collect.
I too am a collector of naturally toned coins and have been for 30 years which maybe much less than yourself but through my
50 years of collecting coins that started from my paper route and has been the underlying hobby into my older life I have put
together many different sets either complete or just partial sets of coins and sold them so I could start a new series. But toned
coins are my passion and are only sold when certain colors no longer attract my eye but are all ways replaced with much nicer ones.
To answer your question about why. I had started a Registry Set of Morgan Dollars and I had closed in to where I realized there would
be many in that series I could not afford in the grade I wanted them and that the g to vg grades I could buy would only distract from
the MS coins I had so I sold my set at auction. Still in love with the Morgan Dollars I sat down and thought about it and decided to collect
a farily common date that would be affordable to me in a grade as high as MS 67 and as low as I wanted. It goes back to the way I collect
toned coins. I feel that quanty with perhaps a little less quality works better for me that having one or two super monster textile coins you
can enjoy for just so long and having a boat load you can enjoy much longer.
Hope I explain myself but ya know, I didn't know I had to when is comes to collecting coins.

Dang it. I said 60 years of collecting and had to change it to 50. hehe
<< <i>what I collect is extremely thinly collected I get a kick out of i tjust the same. >>
i'm in the thin margin of enjoying what you collect!

I thought it was known about my OCD on 79 s Morgans. I've posted about it a few times and I
had Steve at swcoins on the Bay ask me th same question when I bought two niner S toners from
him last week. Dude, I ain't got no edge on you because I started a few years earlier than you, ya
just have fun like we all are ain't ya. I mean look at you, you got over 13000 posts to my meger
1968 so I am in awe of you.
