I am planning to keep some of the info in the original contact and all of it in the copy, where I would later add more. What is the best way to accomplish this.

VCF files are just text files, so you can edit them in every text editor.
- Right-click on VCF file
- Select "Open with" and then "Textedit.app"
- Change whatever field you want to change (
N
andFN
are typical fields to change if you want to change the name) - Use "Save as" to save with a new file name
PS: See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VCard#Properties for details about the different fields. Not all of them may be supported by Contacts though.
I ended up:
- sharing the contact with myself
- renaming the original
- adding the shared one
