<p>[QUOTE=&quot;panzerman, post: 24839772, member: 77704&quot;]I loved coins ever since I was 5 years old/ my parents gave me a Grimm&#039;s Tales for St. Nicholas Day present. At first I looked at the pictures/ most stories dealt with witches/ robbers/ other unsavoury characters. Also the gold coins they plundered/ killed/ hence my fascination with coins. As I got older/ my Dad being a nimismatist got me into coins. Eventually when I turned 12 I would receive cheaper AV coins as Birthday/ Christmas presents (sovereigns/ French 20 Francs/ Austrian restrikes. Then when I got my first real job cutting grass/ I starting saving $$$ from paycheques to get&nbsp; cheaper mint state [ATTACH=full]1591031[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1591032[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1591033[/ATTACH] gold coins. I remember working 4 weeks to buy a MS-64 Napoleon III 100 Frcs 1862-BB for $460.00 Stacks Auction. Thus by today I have 1204 AV coins/ cutting lawns/ probably walked to the Moon and back. Here is that coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
