I was 9 years old when i found a coin that changed every thing. So here is how it happened, Me and my family went to a local pizza shop. Now this pizza shop had a arcade so I brought five bucks with me. When we were done eating pizza, I asked my dad if I could go to the arcade. So I went to exchange my cash for quarter's .There was chocolate chip cookies ( 1.25 a piece with tax ) on the counter though.... This was a major distraction. I decided to get one I got my change and went back to the arcade. I put a few quarters into a machine and was digging around in my change. I saw the penny with a reverse that looked different. I picked it up and flipped it over and it said 1955. It was real red and shiny. I showed it to my dad and he said it was a wheat cent. I have been hooked ever since. Now I have over 2000 wheat pennies and a whole bunch of coins

 

I was 4 years old (1952) and "helped" my great aunt dust her furniture. She gave me a dime with a red mark on it and a tiny hole-lost ages ago.
