 Okay so how I like to buy coins.... (1) sometimes I put ads in the local internet sites that I will buy coin estates... (4) (2) Auctions (1) (3) off the interenet (2) (4) at coin shows or through a dealer (3) The number on the left shows my preference... the number on the right shows the true frequency... I should also not that I enjoy buying coins by all the above stated methods... just I like the "hunt" and find going to a dealer almost too easy to find what you want.. of course you also pay a bit more for the convienence. |

We're about the same age, only I've had this addiction they call "coin collecting" for 37 years now! As far as reference books goes, the first one would be the A Guide Book of United States coins. It's also known as "The Red Book." From there it will depend on what you would like to collect! Edited by Nickel Guy

Haha, I'm not, I'm actually a big baseball fan.
Being a DC native, I use hondo because of Frank Howard. That was his nickname and I met him as a youngster. He signed a photo for me and signed it "hondo" among other things. Stared at that on my bedroom wall for years!

I absolutely cannot wait for baseball season to begin. I'm a huge Nats fan. I plan to make several games (or more) this year.
