Hello everyone. I'm Jake Sr. 44 years old from western New York. I'm a life long gamer, hobby collector of all things. Including antiques, coins, notes, cards, stamps, beanie baby, hotwheels, matchbox, pretty much anything of value. In good weather I enjoy metal detecting looking for new coins and relics. Just being out in the world learning about our great history. Having Some fun enjoying life with my 14 year old son. The coin/note collecting I have just recently started getting in-depth with. Wanting to learn more basically from start to finish how to make them. I love learning about errors and trying to grade them. I'm obsessive slightly and ocd when it comes to certain things. When I get involved with something that interest me I always press to learn more. I never really knew coins had so many things that set them aside from one another. This giving them more value and interesting looks. I look forward to getting to know everybody on here and learning a great deal from some experts. Let me pick your Brains.
