Hello

So I'm a newbie. I've been into sportscards most of my life. My Dad and Grandpa were very much into coins throughout their lives. They are both gone now. Dad died unexpectedly in 1998. I've finally started going through his stuff that I've kept. I was 20 when he died and completely tied myself to his things.

Too much information, I'm sure. So I've started going through his coins. My parents were antique dealers and I started when I was 8. He collected coins though. He really liked them. I've never been into coins before. I'm finding myself quite into it though.

I'm going through rolls of coins, a piece of our country's history. We're financially stable and I'm not selling things to sell things, putting money up for the kid's education. I'm keeping the things I want to pass on and moving the "stuff" and I'll start picking some stuff up.

So the first day I'm looking I find a roll of 1970 small date BU. Kind of a cool deal to see. I'm a horrible photographer and I'm trying to have my wife take a pic. Also found a uncirculated 1931 s penny. This is a lot of fun.

Anyhow, I'll be around. I have a lot of questions.
