First Time Introduction

Hello
My Name is Chele007 I've been collecting mostly pocket change and had a really great collection, noticed I said HAD, I had got into the hobby kinda by accident like 3yrs. ago I had stumbled across a video on YouTube
And the video was showing a nickel with the mint mark on the reverse over the Monticello building and it happened to be worth some money, and I remembered as a teenager I had that nickel in my possession, and I remember thinking to myself how I wished I would have known something about the hobbies of coin collecting cause if I had once had that nickel in my possession God only knows how many more valuable coins I may have had in my possession... It made me kinda sick to my stomach. So from that day on I look at all my pocket change, I buy other people's pocket change and I HAD gotten a really good collection going, I have even gotten some of my relatives into the hobbie... Well about two weeks ago my whole collection had gotten stolen from a female I had welcomed into my home because she had nowhere to stay, welcomed her in and was good to her and when she moved on she took my whole collection !!! All the time and effort I've put into getting a good collection which I had; SICKNING I KNOW !!! Nothing I could do I could probably go find her and beat the crap out of her but for what I don't want to go to jail even though it would make me feel a whole lot better...So now I'm starting all over because I love the hobbie. I recently found a 1992 Close AM I'm actually pretty happy to have found the 1992 Close AM to have started my collection.
