Hello, My name is Joe as you can probably tell, I am 30 years of age. I currently reside in Omaha Nebraska, tho I have lived all over the U.S.. Including both east and west coast. I have been seriously collecting coins for about the past year and a half and in that time I feel as though I have put together a nice little piece of the pie as it were ha ha. I am into just about any older date coin that comes my way as almost all are, tho I lean more towards lincoln cents and Jefferson nickels more so than anything else. I have most the years from 1909 and up for lincoln and most jefferson's from 38 and up only missing a few from each. For the past 6 months and I have been digging more into errors and varieties and feel I have learned quite a bit. I must admit tho I have a friend whom owns a coin shop who has helped teach me about coins and a great local dealer whom he is friends with that is a master error type person lol. He has owned and sold almost anything of worth or interest and has helped me learn some stuff that would have taken me much longer on my own to learn. What brings me to CC is the hope to try and fill some answers to questions I have lately or info on some varieties that stump even those here I have taken them to. I find myself unable to determine if some coins I have are infact what I feel they are and possibly unreported errors or if I am simply not finding where they are listed. I have seen many of posts from here linked to my searches on google and decided to go ahead and give it a shot. Cant be a ghost collector forever right!?! lol Hopefully I as well can bring some unusual info to the site from the tid bits I have learned, either way I expect some fun convos ahead :D Enough of my ramblings tho, I am pleased to have finally joined CC and look forward to reading many posts here and learning ever more about the world of coin collecting.

I am not, I didnt even know there was a Omaha Coin Club. I used to be a part of the Omaha Go Club a long time ago but I havent played a game of that in some time ha ha. I would deff be interested in some more info on the OCC tho if you dont mind messaging it to me whenever you have a free chance. It would be much appeciated.

Welcome Joe! I travel through Omaha occasionally on the way to Lincoln for work. Nice town, like the Old Market area.
