<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wxcoin, post: 2316622, member: 74624&quot;]I started when I was in Junior High School back in the late 60&#039;s after a friend got me started collecting Lincoln cents.&nbsp; When we were in High School we attended several local coin club meetings but since I didn&#039;t have a car my activity was limited.&nbsp; I started buying annual proof sets after I got a part-time job but everything was put on hold while I went to college and grad school.&nbsp; After I started my first professional job I started back up but got put on hold again while raising a family.&nbsp; Following a divorce almost 5 years ago I started back up in earnest.&nbsp; Thinking back when I first started my father told me a story which made me cringe.&nbsp; When his bachelor uncle passed away in the early 60&#039;s he and his brother inherited his estate.&nbsp; He was a retired farmer and not a wealthy man but had several 5 gallon pails full of coins.&nbsp; My dad and his brother took the coins to the bank.&nbsp; I have always wondered what I could have found in those buckets of coins which most likely accumulated from the 1920&#039;s on.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
