I really didn't touch my 2020 winning set after the awards due to the fact that they stopped issuing coins for it and that I had turned my attention elsewhere, mainly to banknotes. There are a few descriptions that I've been meaning to touchup and or update, along with a phantom slot that needs to be removed, but other than that there isn't much to do on that set until more coins are issued. I could chase my tail and try to upgrade a few coins from 69 to 70 but I don't really have any interest in doing that as there are much better things to spend my collecting budget on.
The other thing that deters me from updating, adding to, or starting a description on an item is time and how much you are limited in the sets as far as the amount of text and images you can add. I much prefer talking and posting about items in my Journal where I can run wild about a subject and present it in a more viewer friendly manner, I think, and if I'm spending most of my free time posting in my Journal that leaves me little additional time for the actual sets.
I don't consider any of my sets finished but once the bulk of the work is done, updates can be few and far between.
The passing of DWL was extremely sad to hear of, I had real hope that he would beat his illness and return to good health. He was an active participant on the boards and shared his knowledge freely, a void that has not been filled since he fell ill and probably never will be. I remember catching his NNP symposium talk on coin boards and thoroughly enjoying it and David's enthusiasm on the subject, Coin Board News was one of my guilty pleasures to read.
