<p>[QUOTE=&quot;samclemens3991, post: 24681026, member: 82181&quot;]Three things.</p><p>First.&nbsp; Our farm was destroyed by a tornado.&nbsp; During clean up at age 5 I found a small purse.&nbsp; My father said the coins were special because they were old.&nbsp; One of my older brothers tried to convince me they were worthless but was overheard by my father.&nbsp; Punishment was swift.&nbsp; you would have to be someone who got beat on by older brothers to understand how much sweeter that made the find.</p><p>Second.&nbsp; At 7 my parents gave me the J.C. Penny &quot;Let&#039;s Collect Coins&quot; kit for Christmas.&nbsp; That 1967 Redbook literally disintegrated from constant use.</p><p>Third.&nbsp; My Oma had many old coins.&nbsp; She received a large group of Seated coins from a favorite aunt on her wedding day.&nbsp; She even had a mason lar of what she called her lucky horseshoe coins (Carson City).&nbsp; She also swiped any coin she liked from my Opa&#039;s card playing winnings.&nbsp; She said I was the only one she knew who also liked coins and let me look them up in my Redbook by the hour.&nbsp; james[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
