<p>[QUOTE="kountryken, post: 25552045, member: 89798"]I agree, 110% with my buddy (he doesn't know it yet, so don't tell him), [USER=92655]@Randy Abercrombie[/USER]. Very well stated. I certainly appreciate high grade, uncirculated, proof coins but I'm very realistic. When I started collecting, I couldn't have afforded a single proof or prooflike coin. But I could afford pocket change (at least some of it). Since I love history so much, I would think about how well traveled pocket change was. Where had it gone, who had handled it, etc. So, that's what I collected and have enjoyed it tremendously. I have several sets of different denomination coins, Wheat Cents, Buffalo Nickels, Mercury Dimes, etc, (to name some of them) complete as far as regular issues. I don't collect error coins, but if I found one, I would collect that "one", lol. I would love to have a 3-Legged Buffalo, but haven't found one in my price range, but haven't really focused on finding one. But, you are correct, sir, both of us enjoy what we collect, and I enjoy seeing what you collect, too. Thank you for sharing your 3 cent piece, and thank you for your post, reminding me that I've enjoyed this journey. Blessings, Kenneth[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
