<p>[QUOTE="Chuck_A, post: 3699578, member: 104486"]I inherited 2 collections from a Grandfather who I never met, and a Great Uncle. One of the collections came in 3 WWI & WWII vintage Japanese puzzle boxes that I played with at a very young age, i'm 63 now and I've had these for many years and 2 years ago I started to seriously study numismatics. I was told not to collect for anyone but to be sure to document your collection and the values for your relatives in the event of your demise. I didn't have a clue about what to do with the collections even though I got my first Morgan at 8 years old and kept collecting. If I hadn't became disabled I doubt that I would have ever taken this hobby seriously and would've sold the collections for nowhere near their value. I did buy my 2 great nieces birthday sets and they're welcome to any of my collection at the sole discretion of my wife. I have many nieces and nephews and not even 1 is interested in the hobby.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
