<p>[QUOTE="Gilbert, post: 3056006, member: 73104"]My dad was a WWII veteran and brought home many coins from countries he had passed through. As far back as I can remember these coins interested me, and my dad did not object to my pawing them over and asking where they had come from. After turning ten years old I took over a paper route for an older friend and weekly looked through the collection for coins to fill the empty holes in coin albums. I guess it was a good time to start collecting because we had several coin stores in town, even though it was a small town. I spent many hours looking at coins and asking the store owners questions, which were answered thoughtfully. Anyway, this is how I started collecting coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
