    Don't really know. Many circulated Mercuries, wheat Lincolns, Morgans, stuff like that. Several circulated key dates of various denominations, but not a lot compared to the common stuff.

    If you count slabbed Key dates........probably 40 or so

    About 20.

    I buy a nice one periodically - when I can afford it!

    I guess I have about 300 slabbed coins. I won't count a jar of circulated wheat ear cents, old shabby Whitman folders, my super mint set or any of my wife's coins or anything like that.

    I would like to whittle it down below 200, but think I'd have a hard time keeping a complete proof Jefferson set while trying to complete a US type set.

    There used to be around 3000, but since I consolidated everything into my favorite series (Mercs), I now have around 400. They are all PCGS/NGC Mercs and all are MS66 or higher.

    About 100. Half are ancients sitting in a bowl of olive oil. Of the remaining, 1/4 are slabs and the rest miscellaneous.

    Probably a few thousand, mostly common. I find them in almost every drawer I open, and in every nook and cranny of the house. I'll probably try to rid myself of most of them and buy a couple of nice keys.

    74. 59 of which have been acquired in 2003! These consist of a NICE Peace Dollar set as near to uncirculated as finances have allowed minus 3 (guess which 3), and a very nearly complete, but practical, U.S. type set.

    The other 15, well they've been with me for a while. Some OLD proofs and a couple of nice gold pieces from my father. I wish I had all that I started with years ago.

    I guess the nice Mercury set I'm helping my 9 year old son compile doesn't count, but it's going to be a sweet little set as well. Dansco page two all uncirculated so far. Page one . . . well, let's just say we've made a couple of compromises. 33 down there, 44 to go.

    Between 1200 and 1300. I'd say about 35% or so are US. It used to be the other way around but I started getting rid of the lite to get more of the dark!
