[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 2959339, member: 77814"]When I was really young I started just collecting change and sorting them and storing them away. I got that habit from my Dad who still does that. And I still do that too. I used to put all SBA into film holders (I still have those been meaning to take a few pics for the SBA thread); and pennies were sorted by decade, or just thrown in a bottle. In the 80's I started buying coins from really early online dealers that you had to call up on the phone and give a credit card to. In the 90s I started buying silver and gold and started buying more expensive coins. Now I have my collection near complete with all the neat commemoratives that I like and other bullion pieces. Basically ... when I started having money I evolved. And as I learned more about various coins I evolved too. I have some old coin/paper money books laying around that I used back then. FYI, I've never used a Dansco or anything similar.[/QUOTE]
