    No idea. I’ve never counted, especially if you consider all the rolls and loose pieces hanging around. Maybe a few thousand?

    If you consider each wheatstalk as a 'piece', my collection would be in the six figures.

    Probably 100ish at the moment. 1/3 of them are my "Focused" collection, the rest are just neat cir finds or pre-65 90% silver.

    Probably around 300 if rolls count as one each and a small box of foreigns from the 80s counts as like 5.

    Excluding the piles of junk...not too many right now. Trying to increase the number of pieces ASAP though. The lack of coin shows doesn't exactly help but that could be a while before that situation is resolved.

    Not really looking for much these days but if I were, it might be a toner. :smile:

    From a high of around 2000 certified coins, I’m down to a box of 20 or so.

    I've been watching this series on Netflix called Hoarders. I'm not saying it's true for everyone but there's a lot of hoarding in coin collecting. I for one have to question if I need to make half the purchases I do.

    A lot of junk and mint sets/special sets/reverse proof sets/anniversary sets ... sets I don't even know where to find them :smile:
    Box of 30 in PCGS holders
    Box of 2 in ICG holders (1999-W $10 unfinished proof die gold eagle and 2000 Glenna Goodacre presentation finish)
    2 US Mint holders (100th Anniversary National Park $5 and General McArthur $5)
    In capsule (2006 reverse proof gold eagle)
    UK 1970 proof set which I bought because of the big red copper cent

    ... and I am still waiting for the re-strike 1804 silver dollar
