<p>[QUOTE="ck1of2, post: 1803080, member: 57139"]My journey started all but two months ago when I gained interest in investing in silver. I viewed multiple videos of successful coin roll hunters and thought, how could I lose. I obtained two boxes of halves from my local bank and searched without success, but while I was searching I started to sort out the higher grade coins and realized I enjoyed this process more than searching for silver. So, me being the way that I am, I dove in head first into coin collecting and started to research as much as I could to gain a better understanding of numismatics. I watched videos to point me in the right direction and decided to reach out to a video poster for advice and he suggested many sites, including CT. So, through much appreciated advice through this site, I have bought the book before the coin, started to build an acquaintance with my local coin shop owner, and attended two coin shows last month just to view and gain experience. It has been overwhelming at first being inundated with a wealth of information, but I am learning to gain patience and an understanding that it is a long road and all is not learned overnight. Which is fine by me because I cannot envision there being an end to this new found hobby that has quickly become part of who I am.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
