Introduce Myself

#1 Unread post by Aaugust14 »

Hello my name is Brooke and I am a coin addict. It all started very easily, one day about twenty years ago I was at our rental home, (1877) it was being renovated. I was walking along when I saw a piece of dark metal on the ground. I didn't think much of it til I picked it up washed it off and saw an Indian head on it. I had never seen an Indian head penny before. It was exciting, what a thrill to find a piece of history. Then my grandfather who was a coin collector came and shared his knowledge and my world changed. Now I am forever picking up pennis off the ground. Those leave a penny take a penny cups are no longer safe from me. I search the coin return machines look under soda machines hey I will ask my family if I can look through their change jars. I talk about coins. I have downloaded a magnifying glass app on my smartphone in order to get closer clearer photos of my coins. Oh boy, I digress, I have found an interest in them and then I discovered there were Internet sites with people similar to me , not only who have more knowledge, (thank you for sharing, oh wise ones) but also will help others. This is an amazing concept! What a great group/community I look forward to reading through and maybe adding my little bit of knowledge if I can.
