About Me
About Me:
My father introduced me to coin collecting. We didn't have money to splurge on anything, so his collection came from coins he found in change.That's how my collection began and continued for many years. fortunately, I now have a little splurge money to buy graded/higher quality coins. I especially like Proof coins and DCAM/Ultra Cameo in higher grades. This does limit the number of coins I purchase annually, but that's OK because I've never considered coin collecting to be a race.
