<p>[QUOTE="Randy Abercrombie, post: 7524775, member: 92655"]Been a member at the same church for 25 years. One of the older gentleman had been a friend that entire time and I had no clue that he was a coin collector. He passed several years back and his son who knows I am a collector asked if I would help him liquidate his dad's collection.... Now, I was expecting a cigar box of coins or something.... Oh no... He had an entire walk in closet devoted to his coins. Boxes upon boxes upon boxes of walkers, merc dimes, etc. A glass jug of wheat cents that took a hand truck to move.... It was Shangri-La..... As I recall, it took me three weeks of weekends and after work inventorying and price checking.... And of all the piles of coins he had... Everything was quite average really. We did get the family a rather nice payday when all was said and done though. And in return they gifted me with one of their dad's proof sets. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1299328[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1299329[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
