    Smile Hi from Cambridge, Ontario Canada

    Hi from Cambridge, Ontario Canada. My dad started my coin collection for me when I was very young. He used to work for Brinks and started buying coin sets for my brother and I every year. He continued buying me sets until he passed away three years ago. Last Christmas my son surprised me and gave me a coin set, saying he wanted to keep up his grandfather's tradition - it was very touching. I don't know much about my coins so I am hoping to learn from you "seasoned" veterans.

    Warmest welcome, RedTaxi ! Great to have you around. I hope you enjoy the board.

    I have fond memories of Cambridge, Ontario. I used to visit our branch office there, but it was closed when NAFTA kicked in.

    Hi 900fine, thanks for the welcome. If you haven't been here in awhile you probably wouldn't recognize the place, huge building boom in the last 5 years.
