Allow me to introduce myself.

Hello coin community! I've been collecting coins off and on throughout my life, never really knowing what I was looking for or what I had. Then I would wind up giving what I had collected to a friend who was collecting. This is the third time. I saw a video on YouTube about a high grade penny, I believe it was a 1962 D, that was worth several thousand dollars. I pulled out the change in my pocket to see what I had and wouldn't you know, I had a 1962 D penny. I did a little comparison and I thought mine looked better. That was about 3 to 4 years ago. Since then I have kept every coin I have found that's a high grade or anything that looked odd. Now I'm a little better informed but, still confused on some things, so I'm glad to have people now that I can bounce my questions off of. See you in the general forum.
