    Hey, thanks for the contest. Here is my entry, my childhood Whitman penny folders 2 (in taters). I stopped collecting around the time President Kennedy was slain. Somehow this old folder remained untouched for 50 years. Here it is. Memories of early coin collecting from circulation coinage as a kid, wonderful. :yes:

    I like my 1958 because my great grandfather died in 1958. He was the one who had kidney cancer and let my grandmother feel his knots...thus when she felt my knot she knew I had cancer and saved my life.

    Thanks for the contest!
