<p>[QUOTE="Seattlite86, post: 3156840, member: 59737"]I understand your frustration. Without going down a rabbit hole, my biological mother (who I last saw when I was 2) had passed in the 90s. Unbeknownst to me, she was a coin collector. At a family reunion, I was handed her collection that someone had been holding onto. That thing had been picked dry, which was sad, because there were cases in there labeled $2.50 and $5.00 gold. Even so, I organized what was left, put it all in 2x2s (writing the coin info on all 2x2s) and placed the coins into a binder and returned it to the family member. At least the collection still has some meaning as a sentimental piece that connects us to her. Silver linings.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
