A quarter of our membership is under 25, and almost 20% are under 18, if the regular member-posted polls are accurate.

Now that someone blew the dust off this thread, guess I'll play.   Sept 1974 Long Beach CA Coin Show, looking for deals on Double Eagles.   1969, thinking about all the banks I'll pay a visit to looking for coins on my next Liberty call.  1959, working on my first merit badge, Coin Collecting of course!

Ok everyone, this should be my 250th post, and I figured it was time to show my face. So, here it is.  Also, this is a pretty interesting thread so I figured I would give it a bump.
