I've introduced myself before. I just popped over from the stamp forum to ask some questions about the pounds of pennies, all wheat, I found in my dad's desk. I said then that I had no intention of collecting coins. Stamps were bad enough. Over the past week I have spent over $100 on ebay buying dimes to fill out my collection, mostly Mercs but a few FDRs and even one or two Barbers. So I guess I am a coin collector.

Reasons for the change of heart: In part, you nice people and your willingness to help someone lost in the Coin World. The fact that I had a small number of nearly uncirculated recent coins various charities sent me trying to intimidate me into supporting them. And acquiring a little knowledge, so that I realized my tube of pre-1965 quarters might represent some real money, so ought not to be spent.
Anyhow, thanks!

You realize when you know how to think, it empowers you far beyond those who know only what to think.
