<p>[QUOTE=&quot;teosandra, post: 2728146, member: 86750&quot;]Interesting article. I guess I&#039;m a hybrid &#039;78. That was the year I started working at a small shop at 14yrs old. Back then, I swapped out anything that looked different in the register....wheat pennies, anything silver, $2, blue seals and red seals,etc. In &#039;99, I got back in the game by subscribing to ASEs and silver proof sets. In the last couple of years, I&#039;ve been focusing on the sheer beauty of SLQs, Walking Libs, Mercs, and large currency especially anything with a good story behind it like the racketeer nickel. I try to buy gem slabs online mostly as an insurance policy against fraud. I still buy the coin and not the grade. The inconsistency in grading is crazy but still better than risking getting ripped off. I buy raw in local shops. I love sharing the beauty and history of it all with my kids and helping the little one fill in her state quarter thumb-busters. Maybe something will rub off on them and give them something tangible to remember me by after I&#039;m gone.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
