Hey, y'all! I am absolutely new to this lovely hobby. A little overwhelmed as I have inherited/been blessed with collections of coins, stamps, and 14 boxes of genealogical records/photographs, over 2000 license plates, and some other awesome collection that escapes my mind at the moment. . . . . But I shall pare it down to the coins for this post! :) I have couple books of Mercury dimes, Buffalo nickels, pennies of all stripes, etc and so on and so forth.It isn't limited only to American moneys. I have some that look like it is from ancient Greece. I am doubling down and making lists. In the meantime, I thought I would stick my head in here and wish y'all a good day!

Thanks everyone!
And yes quite a collection/hoard it is! My dad seems to think I should just "sell 'em all". But I don't want to do that. For a few reasons.
The most important one, is that I have a passion for it/and it's something my grandfather obviously took joy in.
I like going through the coins with my awesome magnifying "head gear" and figuring out the best way to display and catalog them. I do know that somehow I will have to find the funds to get the proper equipment to make sure they don't suffer any more damage.
