<p>[QUOTE="Mickey in PDX, post: 2411167, member: 74864"]Hi Zurble, welcome to coin collecting. I was 13 when I started coin collecting (and I am now 71! - sounds old right?) - what several people above have said, decide what you might like to 'collect', many start with Lincoln cents or "pennies" and they get a folder to put them in. (assuming you are in the USA) Whitman Company used to sell them (maybe still do) and they have a nice little round hole punched in the book for each date and mintmark. Begin to look through change, find a coin, put it in the right hole and do it again with a different date/mint mark. for many of us, that is/was fun. good place to start. follow this Coin Talk thingee you've posted to. you will begin to learn so much. from time to time there is something on some topic you totally don't care about, so just go to the next thing. OH! have fun![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
