<p>[QUOTE=&quot;AdamL, post: 1244651, member: 6029&quot;]My dad gave me two 1983 proof sets for my birthday, because 1983 was the year I was born. I think it was my 9th birthday, so that would have been 1991. This got me interested in coins a little, so I started asking my dad alot of questions. If I remember correctly he also gave me a Redbook which I found fascinating. So a short time later (Maybe a month or 2) he gave me an uncirculated 1899-O Morgan silver dollar, and I was hooked on coins.</p><p>Fastforward a bit. I kind of got out of coins in my late teens. I would still admire my collection occasionally, but I was interested in other things. Shortly after turnings 22 I was desperate for money. So I got out the old coin collection and started going through it, trying to figure out how much I could sell it for. Well, that reminded me how much I loved coins, so I kept my collection and sold my car instead. I&#039;ve basically been addicted ever since, and going strong for 5+ years since getting back into the hobby. Money, and time, are still short sometimes. But the time I do get to spend on my hobby is great and very relaxing <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
