How many coins in all do you think you have collected currently?
If you ignore the 'batch' coins I have such as Roman coins, U.S. "V" nickles and Indian head pennies which I store several hundred of each type in coin tubes, I have about 300 individually wrapped U.S. coins and about 25 old, foreign silver coins.
One of the best ones I have is an 1838 "Seated Liberty" dime minted in New Orleans. 1838 was the first year dimes were minted in New Orleans ("O" mint mark) and it was the only year of the "no stars" design, which was a design oversight corrected the next year when dimes had 13 stars around the "Seated Liberty" figure representing the 13 original states.
