<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jim Dale, post: 4933283, member: 100459&quot;]I&#039;m enjoying this thread.&nbsp; I hope people will keep adding on.&nbsp; I didn&#039;t start my collection until 1996, when my Dad died.&nbsp; His collection was a mish-mash of coins.&nbsp; Few are rare, but he did have a lot of Morgan, Peace, and Eisenhower dollars.&nbsp; When I got my share of the collection, I got a terrible itch to start my own collection. I save all the coins I get, no matter what they are. I use to be a comic book collector, but when my son wanted to go to college, we didn&#039;t have the money and were too &quot;rich&quot; to get assistance, so I sold all of my comics and they paid for his college education. Anyway, I had about 9 boxes for comics and now each as their purpose. I have 2 boxes for U.S. Mint coins, a box for all my foreign coins and currency.&nbsp; Then, the other boxes are filled with raw coins.&nbsp; I also keep my slabs together with my raw coins.&nbsp; I love to go into them and look at them.&nbsp; Everyday is a new day and I will look through a box and document all I know about them.&nbsp; I keep all of that in binders that are in the bookcase above my desk and computer.</p><p>I thought comics were the best hobby, but I found they had their purpose.&nbsp; Now, I LOVE THIS HOBBY.&nbsp;&nbsp; Thank all of you for teaching me about coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
