Hello everyone! I am from small town Ontario in the Great White North. I have been collecting coins for close to 20 years - geez has it been that long? Anyway, I can't believe I waited this long to join a coin community/forum, but better late than never!

I collect some numismatics, and some precious metals. My favorite coins are young Queen Victoria Florins. I think they are the most beautiful coin ever designed (that I have seen). I also enjoy picking up modern coins that I find unique and perhaps off the radar of many collectors (piedfort Twoonies come to mind, but there are many others).

I hope to find some like-minded members here who share the same interests as I do, and I am sure I will spend many hours reading post of interest.

Thank you all for the kind welcomes. AgHoarder: I was born in Toronto and have lived in quite a few communities throughout Ontario, and currently reside in Belleville, Ontario. I have driven through Northern Ontario in the past however I took the southern route so never made it to Cochrane. If it wasn't so cold up there in the winter, I could see myself moving there as it is beautiful during the other 3 seasons.
