I ran out of money before I ran out of coins:(

I believe I see a pattern developing now. I am buying coins faster than I can sell them so I must cease and desist from buying again. In spite of several coins calling to me I must stop and regroup again. My sets are steadily improving while my bank account says OUCH!!! It looks like a couple of weeks on the sidelines while I sell excess and pay off the credit card again. I am sure to visit my friendly coin dealer for some wheeling and dealing but I must sell especially the coins that have been upgraded. I have heard from several visitors to my journal and it seems that mine isn't a unique situation. Misery does love company but try explaining it to the wife ;-)

I have really enjoyed looking at the fabulous pictures and descriptions in many of the registry sets here. What a treat to be able to look at coins that I will probably never own. Thanks to all of you that have pictures displayed with your sets. I intend to do that with mine shortly. Now that I have made that public I have more pressure to follow through:) Keep sharing your experiences and insights as I continue to learn and grow.
