Lol thanks mama stinky, I'm not as young as Dustin though. I hope chase emails me, I really wanna trade rolls with him. Went to another coins show yesterday, finally bought myself a loupe, some bill holders (singles and pages) another Jefferson folder and an album for my 1941-1974 prized Lincoln center collection from circulation. Various world coins averaging about 15 cents each, 1875 1 pfeinng, 189? 5 pfeinng, older Canadian nickels and pennies a few francs and my coolest find... A 1795 coin, no idea where its from (only 50 cents)

Oh and a few proof sets 5 from the 80's for less than 4$ each because of various issues, mostly some kind of green problem with the cents. A 1976 proof set for 9$ and a AU 1964 Kennedy half for 8$ (pretty much spot for a collector coin. |

I am digging up a not so old post, but I have the same problem of all kinds of Denver mint coins and hardly any Philadelphia. My coin books look like a picket fence with all the missing coins. I buy the Philadelphia coins, but I end up leaving them in the container they came in.

Hey, Chase and Coolman, I'm fairly new to collecting but have learned quite a bit. Feel free to PM me (click on my username and click "Send an Email").
I'm more than willing to help in any way I can. I seem to be in the geographic middle between you two. I get mostly Denver coins and Philly as a second. San Francisco ("The City") is a very distant third.

I'm glad to see other young numismatists on here, and especially glad to see y'all getting closer and friendly on a personal level and not just on the thread here. i met my numismatic friend on CCF as well and it has made the hobby 1000X better than it was when I went pretty much solo..now I have a good friend who shares the passion and talks often and attends shows with me almost always..it really is great to have a good friend who shares collecting interests. also,  Gotabecoolman Feel free to call me Will.

Thank you thedollarman. There's a YouTuber that searches for silver halfs I've been trying to get him to come to a coin show, I think he's in the hobby more for profiting on silver than actually collectimg

I think he's in the hobby more for profiting on silver than actually collecting a profit is always nice and in numismatics you have to be money smart...i'd suggest finding someone who treats it truly as a hobby and interest though. it can take time but try find someone who is fairly close that can meet up once in a while, have good talks with you etc who really enjoys the hobby like you do. I'm not trying to dismiss the youtuber guy though, the more people you know the better, even if he is not the right kind of guy to be a coin buddy, he can easily become a good connection to have and as he looks to turn a profit, you may be able to do some good business with him. Feel free to call me Will.

You're right, I have nothing against making money. It's not much of a hobby if that's the only thing you care about though.

@Gotabecoolman Until you get to 50 quality posts, Forum email is not available. I'm willing to help with any questions you may have and provide help with what I have learned so far. Because I somewhat inherited a collection that includes a wide range of things, I believe I may be able to help to a degree with what you're interested in. I don't think there will be any meetings based on the distance but, I do stay up later than most Central Timezoners.  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

coolman and chase! Have you checked for a local coin club in your areas? Ours meets once a month and the interaction with fellow collectors is awesome. |

Thank you all for the support. Today I bought a box of 20+ Whitman coin folders, a few we're pennies and the 2nd and 3rd volumes we're full! Only $10. And yes I have a local coin club I'm very busy I probably couldn't make any of the meetings.
