So this is how it started for me. How did your Coin Collecting Journey begin?

I began saving coins from circulation in 1967 with Canada's Centennial coins. At 9 years old I didn't have much income so things went rather slow for the first few years. 
When I began working in the early 70's I knew to start keeping silver coins from my change and anything really old (pre 1950's) but I still didn't know anything about rarities or to start keeping the best looking recent issues yet.
In 1989 I quit drinking and needed a hobby to occupy myself. Since I was already a quasi coin collector it seemed logical to just dive deeper into the hobby.
