Hello everyone,

I have collected coins in variable degrees my whole life, but have never really taken it so serious to know what I have. When I saw a Wheatback penny or the occasional Indian Head penny in the till at work, I'd switch it out with my own money and pocket it.

around 15 years ago, I also worked on a couple cruise ships and traveled extensively. That whole time I collected the local currencies where ever I may have traveled and now I have a box full of coins. Many of which I don't want anymore. lol.

I want to learn more about my coins so that I can differentiate which ones I want to keep and which ones I want to get rid of and learn how to sell them at a fair price.

The prospect of really learning about coins is pretty exciting to me, so that however I decide to proceed with my collection, I will have the knowledge to discuss or educate people about what I have.

Thanks for reading. Comment if you like. I am also hoping to make new friendships. take care!
