<p>[QUOTE="White Ger. Shep. Lover, post: 4112635, member: 108450"]Hello my name is WhiteGermanShepherdLover and I'm a 3. It's hard to pinpoint exactly when my coin collecting started. But I do know that it began oh so innocently. I believe I started at around 8 years of age. Going through penny rolls looking for wheats and IHC's. Checking my change. Asking mom or dad to take me down to the local coin shop to gawk at all of those pretty coins, in which a few just may some day find their way into my blossoming collection. And before I knew it, there I was, shoveling walks in brutally cold weather and mowing lawns on scalding hot summer days, for the sole purpose of getting money to support my coin collecting habit.......enough with that. Yeah, I'm a solid 3. Like many of us, I cringe when I reflect back at my days as a 1. I was a buying fool! At this point I'm too embarrassed to reveal the morbid details, but trust me when I say that I was quite the ignorramus! So to all of you new collectors, do yourself a tremendous favor and do your homework first, before pulling the trigger on any acquisitions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
