Hi; David here
We shall give this a try. I colect mostley out of pocket coins. I pefere coins that have been around the blook a few times myself. I don't get into buying new stuff much. I like the histery and fun of the old coins. I have some paper and even some foreign but not much. I really enjoy the look on a kids face when he works for me and I pay him in half dollors. It seems to me people are geting way to sereis for a hobby that is so much fun. |

Glad to see you here David. Your right. You can have alot of fun in this hobby with newer, or every day run-of-the mill coins. You'll find that some of us here get alot of enjoyment out of searching rolls of coins for older coins, silver, errors, or just to build a set of coins, like jeffersons, kennedys or lincoln memorials. Again, welcome, and have fun!

Welcome to the forum! I also generally stick to circulated grade coins, I do enjoy the look of a coin that has passed through some hands. Let us know some of your finds! |

Welcome David. I also like circulated coins. There's a feeling of accomplishment when you find a particular coin still in circulation, whether it be a silver coin, a 1939 Jefferson nickel, a wheat penny, etc. |

Welcome aboard,David.Coin collecting is a very flexible hobby,as there is no right or wrong way of collecting coins.
Coin collecting is a very addictive hobby,but at least it is a positive addiction.Once you get into it,you are hooked for life.
Aidan.
