I started coin collecting officially about a year ago. I've unofficially been collecting since I was really young. I inherited some older coins from my grandparents. That set off my interest. I love the history and age behind coins. They are tangible context that bring to life historical periods that I might have otherwise not be aware of without them.
I started my collection with Mercury dimes and I've been exploring Buffalo nickels and wheat pennies.

Bakerm87: to the CCF !
Now would be a opportune time to get yourself RedBook - perhaps a older copy, if the expense cannot be justified for a new one. You can always get current values off the 'Net.

Welcome. Educate yourself as much as you can. Members here can help as well and point you to reference material. The best education comes from real life experiences.
