Curtisimo Posted April 18, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted April 18, 2023 (edited) Until last year, I had posted a Top 10 list every year since 2016. At the end of last year my free time was completely taken up with moving to a new house and spending time with my wife preparing for our first child (due any day now!). I had about half of my favorite coins photographed and my camera was packed up (plus I was too busy to use it anyway). I have recently had a bit of time to catch up on my coin photography and be a bit more active on the forum. I am tempted to post my Top 10 now but I am also a bit hesitant due to it being well past he traditional timeframe. Therefore I figured I would post this question to the forum. Please note that I am not just fishing for the answer I want to hear. I love the festive atmosphere of the Top 10 season as well as anyone and recognize the tradition works best at the year's end. So what do you think? Is it poor NF etiquette to post a very late Top 10? Edit: 4-19-2023 I just posted my Top 10 of 2022. Thanks to everyone who voted! See below for a link to my Top 10.

No harm in this so go for it. I can’t imagine anyone getting on your back about something as trivial as this. But if anyone does get upset over it, they should expect a Top 10 of 2011 post from me (the year that I first started collecting ancients) 😁.

I’m genuinely looking forward to seeing that! I bet it took me 3 years or so after I started to even get to 10 total coins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryro Posted April 18, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted April 18, 2023 I can't wait to see it! ... come to think about it, I don't think I got around to giving my top ten last year. Shhh 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sand Posted April 18, 2023 · Member Share Posted April 18, 2023 @Curtisimo I would like to see it. For me, it's never too late, to post a top 10 list. I would also like to see @ValiantKnight's top 10 list for 2011. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hrefn Posted April 18, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted April 18, 2023 The virtue of an unwritten Constitution is its infinite malleability. If you promise not to sneak in any 2023 purchases, the Court is disposed to allow it. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the additional request that he explain if he would, or would not, buy each coin today, given a dozen more year’s experience collecting. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Severus Alexander Posted April 18, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted April 18, 2023 Of course you should! And then I'll post mine after. 😁 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furryfrog02 Posted April 18, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted April 18, 2023 Better get that top 10 done now before the baby comes. Lord knows you won't have time to get it done afterwards! Take it from the guy with 4 kids haha. Better late than never. Also, @Severus Alexander you'd best get in gear and get yours done too! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursus Posted April 18, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted April 18, 2023 Yes – I'd be excited to see them. And more importantly: Congratulations on the move and all my best wishes to you and your wife for the big event to come! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Conduitt Posted April 18, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted April 18, 2023 In the top 10 forum, obviously 😉 I don't think there are any rules anyway - many people post more than 10 or multiple sets of 10 or include coins from other years. You could post a top 10 every month if you had the coins. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And sorry, but somehow I had imagined you being much older actually, because of your exquisite taste in coins! Not that that taste is age related, but for some reason... Well, anyway, all the best of health! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curtisimo Posted April 18, 2023 · Supporter Author Share Posted April 18, 2023 (edited) Thanks all for your thoughts and votes. I’m now very much looking forward to pulling together a few notes and posting my Top 10 soon. It sounds like we might be seeing a few more list from a few others which is awesome! I love the top lists. Also, thank you @Limes and @Ursus for your kind words and well wishes. My wife and I could not be more excited to be adding a new member to our family. 🙂 Edited April 18, 2023 by Curtisimo 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qcumbor Posted April 19, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted April 19, 2023 Yes, yes and yes, I'm looking forward to see both yours and @Severus Alexander's top 10 of the year, please And @Furryfrog02 nailed it : when the baby is here you will have millions of other things to do 😄 Q 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
