<p>[QUOTE="RiverGuy, post: 1757874, member: 22755"]I've been collecting for 55+ years and naturally enough started with circulation finds - when you could actually find rare coins in circulation. At that time date/mint sets were my goal as many others also pursued the same ends. Time went on and sets grew and quality improved with the ability to purchase coins. I ran hot and cold and had spells when everything went fallow. Then TPG's came along and as consistency improved it became possible to compare collections. This was not a perfect world but has improved dramatically. I embraced the Registry Set format and have found it FUN - which is all I want from this great hobby. It has also introduced me to collectors country wide who share my enthusiasm. No, I'll never be the best, but my primary interest - the faithful Lincoln Cent now includes the #6 '09 to present and #3 Lincoln Memorial. It's been great fun and continuew!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
