<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Robidoux Pass, post: 8434949, member: 96691&quot;]As a high schooler, I bought the cheap coins out of the ads in Boys Life. College stopped that pursuit but I still had the yearning.&nbsp; When I got out into the working world, I soon found myself working in the lesser developed countries of the world. Not only was there no internet, but my first homes also did not even have telephones. It wasn&#039;t long before I was frequenting the street sellers or going to the villages and visiting with the money changers, squatting on the mat with them.&nbsp; I still have many of the date sets I was able to put together of the local coinage.&nbsp; And it&#039;s surprising what strange coins can show up at money changers in an off-the-beaten-track village in Africa or Asia or the Middle East.&nbsp; Some were quite scarce and are still some of my favorite coins today.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
