Hello from new member
Hello to all from a new member blessed to be a retired farmer collecting coins (amateur) since a boy. My start may interest some: In the early 1950's our local county Farm Bureau would hold summer picnics with games and races for the kids. Over the years I received and saved several Morgan and Peace silver dollars (for 1st place) and some silver half dollars and quarters (for 2nd or participation). Since then I have mostly purchased example and collector coins with birth years, 50, or 100 years before of my parents, children, and myself. I have also gathered coins from countries visited in Europe, South America, and Asia. recently got interested in commemorative half dollars and made a few purchases on Ebay. I look forward to learning more about and from the expertise of those enrolled here.
