Im going to say 935 posts.

I got started in collecting by actually going onto ebay and I saw some adds on there about the Wisconsin Error. So I clicked on it and got hooked into looking for errors in coins. Then My dad said he had some old coins from his grandmother and from there I got hooked in errors and old US coins

My grandmother bought me my first three Buffalo nickles about 8 or 9 years ago. She said, "pick the ones with the readable dates!" lol
She now has given me her complete Roosevelt and near conplete murcury dime collection. She's a good-ol-gal.
Good things,
Ty

My guess is 936 Posts

My relatives got me started by giving me coings from their vacations. First coin I ever bought, however, was an 1896 Indian Head penny.

My father got me interested in coin collecting in the fifties. He was a bank roll hunter even back then. He would take a few dollars out of his paycheck and buy penny and nickel rolls. Good ones went into a 5 gallon potatoe chip tin. On our Christmas break from school, we sorted, rolled and filled albums. At one time I swear my dad had over 1000 rolls of IHs, wheaties, buffs and silver.

First coin I can remember buying was a silver Dollar in 66. Loved them then and I still like collecting them. Had to sell over 50 of them in the 70s when the company I worked for went bankrupt. Just got back into collecting a few years ago.
