Tiffibunny Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Both for me too. I shift back and forth, sometimes I focus on US and sometimes I focus on World, sometimes both at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stujoe Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 I chose Collect US and dabble in World. Although, sometimes my dabbling is pretty intense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corina Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 I Collect Both types of Coins World And US Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
labmom Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 dabble in US but primarily collect World. IMHO, cheaper and more interesting over on the non-US side of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burks Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 It started out equally but I'm beginning to lean more towward the world side. US coins are getting too high for me for what I need. No big deal though, I'm happy where my collection stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brett Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 I started out collecting US coins and only had a few world coins. In the past year or so, the World coins have dominated my collecting and so has world paper money. It just seems that there is more of a variety in world coins than US. And US coins have lost alot of there appeal to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuldFartte Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 I voted the last option, but the reality is that I mainly collect British, followed by Conder Tokens, selected medals, type sets for Canada and Australia, then a US Type Set. Aw, hell ... I guess I want one of everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 50cents Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 I collect only U.S. but I must admit all the good pictures that you all post are getting to me.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Sisu Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 I collect predominanty world coins. And that is usually by type with the exception of a handful where I collect by date. The US I have a few series that I collect by date and then the rest by type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlavicScott Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 The only American coins I collect are in my change jar,only until I accumulate enough to hit the CoinStar machine. As for actually collecting for hobby, nothing from the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottishmoney Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 The only USA stuff I have is stuff I have had for over 15 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tabbs Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 I won't participate in a poll where the Dull Side is called "Light Side". And I collect world coins only, which includes US coins ... Christian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan769 Posted November 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Great, this is much closer than I expected! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccg Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 I'm doing several type sets, of which the U.S. is one. Other than that I don't have much interest in U.S. - it's expensive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gxseries Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 The fifth, although I admit I should be getting into US coins soon or later. My area is starting to become very expensive and one of the very few copper coins that I need to complete my Russian copper collection is a bloody 400US+ coin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ætheling Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Mostly world (and not very much of that). US i tend to go here and there with, mostly the earlier 1820s and before stuff is what grabs me. But i'm a real sucker for Washington quarters. (I like SLQs as well). I like Merc dimes alot but i generally find them ugly. That girl has got a seriously protruding chin (okay not quite like Morgans). But that kind of chin thing should be left to Roman Emperors like Vespasian. These days i seem to be buying up Roman coins and reading all things Roman (always found Rome interesting but i managed to keep it supressed for several years), if this Romanitis continues much longer i'll be adorning a purple cloak and adopting the name Little Boots. I think it's safe to say i'm primarily a world collector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
