I started collecting about a month ago or so. I was very interested in the hobby after viewing a coworkers collection. I am currently working on several collection Modern Commemoratives(about 10 more needed), American Silver Eagle Proof(5 more needed), Ben Franklin 1/2 dollars and China's Silver Panda's. I really enjoy researching the history of the coins. I also have a collection of about 200 World coins.

I started with Mercury dimes and lincoln cents when I was around 12,, My collection has since run the Gammet of types and grades, I still have a deep Love for these two types.


It all started with a Mercury coated Mercury dime,, I still have it and it has long since blackened but the Memory is still bright and shiny !!

I only collect two series - U.S. Half Cents and U.S. Large Cents. I got hooked after I picked up a couple of books on them, and joined EAC. My other collections are Type Sets rather than series.

I started off with wheat cents. Now I only have like four to go. My grandmother gave me her Mercury dime collection, so I have a full set of Roosevelts and only missing three for the Mercury dimes. I buy cheep morgans for under $10 for the silver. For the future I really want a full set of buffalos, Franklins, and large cents.

I already have full sets of JFK's, American Eagles, and a full roll of each State Quarter. Minus the P mind, though...
