I do the same thing at coin shows (use nickel 50c and dollars for change), especially for kids...

FOOT moved about 2 blocks east of his old location. same side of the street, just past where fraser hwy turns into a one-way.
he's closed sundays and mondays btw, and sometimes when he gets tired, sick, hungry, bored etc etc (call first). like I said, he's 80ish, does want he wants. a little gruff when you first go in but if you engage him in conversation (ask him what he thinks of silver futures) he will open up.

rmc, WELCOME
Tumbler Ridge is probably in Northern BC. Are there any coin shops down there, or do you just collect circulation finds?
