My Grandmother has a silver stash I dipped my sticky fingers in 4 years ago, and I took all the walking liberty halves (6) and the franklins (5 out of 300 in there) and a few mercury dimes and washington quarters and ikes.</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">I went with my childhood raccoon instinct and hid the shinnies somewhere nobody would find them. It definitely worked because I forgot where I put them. 2 years later, my mom found them, found out it was me and I had no recollection of where I got them for 2 days until I had a flashback-dream of me stealing them, so the next day I grabbed them from my mom and walked to my grandmothers house with the coins. She, to my surprise, was not at all angry with me, just sighed and started talking to me. She said that I am not the only one, but I am the only one who didn&#039;t spend them. She told me a lot about the history of those specific coins and how she had them since 1966 and collected them from her years of being a bank teller. I soon saw that each and every coin has a history behind them, and decided I like them. </span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">Ever since I started collecting, I have done a little research on the newest coin series in my collection, right now I am learning about seated dimes. But the greatest part about this collecting hobby I have is that I am getting better grades in my history class </span></p><p>:thumb:<p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">. </span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">My favorite coin(s) in my collection are the ones I get for free.</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p><p>[ATTACH]164222.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]164223.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]164224.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]164225.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]164226.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
