<p>[QUOTE="fishaddicit, post: 857812, member: 16999"]I joined the worlds best Navy in 1992. I've had my endevours around the world and back and have loved MOST of it. I'm just a couple years from retirement and me and my family are patiently awaiting that day!! As for colecting I can remember my father collecting LMC years ago.I remember the day he spent $85 on a 09 S and he wound up getting an 09-s IHC. He was ****ed!! I guess those were the days. I would help him seperate coins and look for upgrades. It has always been in my blood I guess. I just recently found out that my grandfather was also was a collector. He had sold off some of his silver collection in 1973 to buy up a nice chunk of land in KY. That land has now become mine kinda unfortunatelly but it is funny how his collecting has came back around to me. I just recently in the past year and a half gotten serious into coins because my son sparked an interset in coin collecting. For an austic child to show interest in something that has loomed in my heart was by far one of the greatest things a father could ask for. I do believe that he knows more than me now. Soon we will be out of the Navy but I truley hope that I have instilled enough compasion and desire for my son to carry on the legacy of our family coin collecting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
