<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cringely, post: 1327554, member: 22271&quot;]The first coin I purchased was an 1858-O half dime VF details, but bent. Bought at Princeton coins in Costa Mesa, CA in 1960. I still have it.</p><p>Restarted collecting in August 2000, buying a corroded 1804 half cent for $12 on a buy board at a local brick &amp; mortar coin store, primarily because it was the same year as the 1804 silver dollar (which even back in 2000 I could not afford). Even though this particular half cent is scudzy, I&#039;mm keeping it because it got me back in collecting.</p><p><br /></p><p>To those of you to whom the season has meaning, <span style="color: #ff0000">Merry</span> <span style="color: #006400">Christmas</span> ![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
