<p>[QUOTE="bearze34, post: 2012882, member: 71706"]I found a Franklin half in change at a 7-11 and I thought it was a fake coin. I was 7-8 and this was 1970 ish. It seemed like a fortune. My mom knew what it was and let me keep it. I then started collecting wheat pennies and silver dimes by looking at the edges. I saved coins feverishly until I got married and had a kid. I then had to sell my U.S coins, baseball coins, hockey, football, and basketball cards as well as my comic books. I had a lot of stuff from the 60's and 70's that I wish I had today. Now I'm on my third collection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
