I collected in the past US coins, but really it just wasn’t enjoyable. To many cost too much for too little. And quite frankly(no offense to anyone, just my opinion) the designs never did anything for me. The exception for some reason being Lincoln cents I always have liked those. Then I moved into world coins and love the variety and history and designs! So much more interesting to me, and still collecting these too. I have been reading and looking at this forum for a bit and decided to post this coin and explore ancients! In any event holding a coin that has been through centuries of history is so amazing! On a similar note the other reason I didn’t care as much for US is all the slabs and don’t touch this or that.... coins, I feel we’re made to be held even though they are works of art. Plastic can’t communicate the history of actually touching the coin. May as well be just in a museum then. Sorry for the rant.</p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=75143]@hotwheelsearl[/USER] : Thank you for the compliment! Looking forward to expanding that with other coins![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
