She thinks coin collecting is about the nerdiest hobby since gem and mineral collecting.
Hi guys, I've tried to understand what you talk about on the thread "From a Wall Street Perspective." I really have. I don't consider myself to...
I agree with the Dansco suggestion. You have what sounds like a (nearly) complete set in a condition that will not suffer from a coin album....
