Where Are You From?

Hey Everyone. I am from the good ole USA. Small Carroll County Georgia. I have something to say so bear with me.

I fell into this really by accident. I found a coin one day that looked so bizarre I had to find out about it....well the rest is history. The little coin I found wasn't the part of my story I want to focus on but what this hobby has done for me. For years I was focused on drugs and Alcohol. Staying in places I shouldn't. No more. Today I'm at the kitchen table with two or three boxes of each denomination around me and a USB microscope. I can say there is no other hobby on the planet like this. Nothing compares.

One thing that really stands out is I have posted some stupid things asking if it was an error. The more I learn the more I retain. I appreciate everyone here being professional, nice and informative. I believe this should be the etiquette to all people at all times but especially here, this hobby. I have met others like myself, this saved them. I have also met those in this hobby with no heart. No character, full of themselves and willing to crush anyone who disagrees or has another opinion. If that is you please reconsider. In other places, other groups I was so discouraged I had all of my things boxed up and ready to quit. But as luck would have it someone told me about this community. Since I have regained my desire to learn with the determination that no one will keep me from it. Remember the newbie may not be trying to make a buck, he/she may be escaping from bad habits or a bad life. This hobby has the ability to change people. I am thankful I found a place that seems to understand that. God bless you all and I look forward to learning from the best!!

Ello My name is Dom I'm from Cortland New York. I'm exactly a collector but my father was and I now have a few coins that I want to get a little bit of info on. Thank you.

Hello everyone just joined I'm from effingham illinois in the united states. Found the site trying to figure out if some coin errors I had were from factory minting or from age thanks for allowing me to join

hey my name is Morgan, I'm from a little town in wv. and I inherited a bunch of coins from my dad. Anyway some of them make sense, but there are quite a few others that don't. I'm trying to gain some knowledge and figure out what to do with them. That was his final wish. He wanted me to sell them after he passed, and make sure my mother would be taken care of. So that's why I'm here.

Palm Bay Florida and my friend left me a bunch of change, ok everything he owned since I had to clean out his place, anyways some was put up separately and I was just curious.
