I have been trying to organize my and my b/f, Strider's coin collections, joining the two collections together to eliminate duplicates so I decided the best way to do this would be to lay them all out on a table. I had to add a leaf to the table to finish the job and I still don't have room for my GW5 Peeps, my personal coins and a bunch of GeoTags I have! If I knew how many are in the picture I would have a cointest but I haven't been brave enough to count yet!
Bearing in mind that this table is 6.5 feet long and 4.5 wide and that all "sets" of coins are stacked in order to give me more room..... well that is a lot of geocoins!!!
On the positive side, by the time I'm finished, my trading list will be vastly increased as I will be putting all duplicates (not necessarily different finishes but exact duplicates) up for trade!

Gee, you could weigh them and them devide by # and lets see that would be ?$$$? per pound ? Yhess, don't want to even think about it. I tried laying mine out on the floor, was afraid to break the table. and then was afraid my other half waould get a look and ask how much $$$ was laying there so I quickly scooped them all back up and put them back into boxes. LOL But oh the fun of handleing all those purty shinys..... |

I gasped in delight at the sight of your table, so the nosey pig who lives with me came to have a look at what I was getting so excited about....and he said....
..."...but that's not our table". And laughed and laughed. I dont get the joke.
But I did love the photo.
Hey Sarah, remember how much you love Australia? Wouldn't you just adore having some of your coins come here to live? |

Well, the beast has been (partially) tamed:
Now all I have to to is go thru them again, figure out which ones are activated and which ones that, even tho they are on my "Keeper List", I would be willing to part with. I will be posting comments on those coins so - once I'm finished - don't forget to check my keepers as well as my traders.

* dusts off hands*
There, all done (if you don't count the three unopened bubbler mailers sitting on my desk..... )!!
Be sure to check out me "keepers" as well as the "traders" list. Many of my keepers have "I would trade this coin" in the comments and I would trade any of those coins. I'm just not quite ready to move them to my trader list because they are unique in my collection. Also I have added a lot of activated coins to my trader list. These are duplicates that I would like to move on to new owners. I will clear all logs and adopt out any activated coins anyone might want.

WOW! That's an impressive list!
Just one question, though, I noticed you have your mystery coins in your trader list, are you really going to trade them away?
