Hello Ladies and Gents!
I did most of my collecting in the 1970's, even worked at a local coin shop on Saturdays keeping the Penny, Nickel and Dime collector's cases stocked, priced and graded.
I have always searched through coin rolls and bags when I could find them. Looking forward to starting that up again.
I also have a hoard of Pennies to go through looking for something other than a 1955 S double die. When I did go through rolls in the 70's I pulled all Wheaties and anything with a "S" mint mark.
I figure I will be posting in both the Roll hunting, and I have a few error coins I want to post.
Do have a question, is there a forum on how to catalog coins in this "new generation". In the day all you needed was a date, mint mark, and a grade. Now with all the different types of errors kinda at a loss on how to proceed.
Looking forward to getting to know you folks!
