I haven't been here in a while, so I thought I'd drop by and say "hi." All of my collecting efforts right now are going into a collection of British monarchs. That is coins with the portraits or inscriptions of a monarch of Great Britain. The idea is to collect one coin per monarch. I made an exception for Queen Elizabeth II. She gets three coins with young, middle aged, and elder portraits. I may do the same for Queen Victoria, but not until the collection is a little further along. The coins themselves don't have to be British. Edward VIII is from British East Africa and William IV is from the English East India Company. Other than those, I have coins from the United Kingdom, England, and Northumbria. I'm having a great time with it.
I hope everyone else is having fun with their collections. I'll try to drop by more often.
