Message:: [QUOTE="Leif Erik Johansen, post: 4235812, member: 111144"]Thank you, J.T. Parker. I always mix these two words but know 98% of ppl who has English as the main language understand what I wanna say. It is not that hard I guess lol. But some have fun when a new foreign member comes in and do something "wrong". Its all over and it is to live with, no problem. I am used to it. When I got into the internet back in 2006-2007 I had that problem every day and left many groups and places like this cos of it. I was hoping to mix in here to share and learn from you. I have in total 8 albums of US coins and most of them are already full, just after collecting the USA for 3-4 years. I also run a Norwegian group at Facebook for US coins and banknotes. Had many great buys thereby auctions. I also ordered some of it from the US mint. I really love the US coins. I collect all from 1 cent up to 1 dollar, but not all periods/coins, ie morgan dollar, and peace dollar. I guess the oldest coin I got is 1 cent in 1830. I also have 1839 of the old ones. In addition to the eagle coins, I love the Indian head cent. Talking about one cent.... I have always since I starting collecting US coins wondered why Americans say penny when its cent. It's to me like I would call 1 øre from Norway for 1 peseta lol. Is it cos the history of the USA ? Thanks for backing me up Parker[/QUOTE]
