    Nice. Swap out the Gothic Florin for a Gothic Crown?

    A complete set of PEI coin would go well with the Newfie coin.

    Someday, maybe. Or at least upgrade to a MS Gothic florin.

    Dunno that I’m interested in building any complete subsets, but I would like to add a nice MS RB or RD 1871 PEI cent someday.

    That’s a new feature on the CollecOnline site. The site creator seems to be big into the Metaverse. I’m not, but since the virtual gallery was a free feature that required no input from me, why not? All my collections on the site seem to have gotten one. It’s an extra layer of fun, I guess. Sorta like those virtual albums that the PCGS Registry has.

    I can unreservedly recommend CollecOnline as a great place to display one’s collection. It’s a French site but totally navigable in English. It has tons more features than CollectiveCoin, including an account book and so on. Of course it’s a bit more complex than CollectiveCoin, which is also a great hosting site if you prefer more minimalistic, uncluttered simplicity.

    CollecOnline is free to use but I liked it enough to upgrade to their lowest paid tier, which costs 5€/month.
