<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ewomack, post: 3737890, member: 15588&quot;]This is a fascinating observation for those of us who didn&#039;t exist, such as myself, in 1964. It sounds like that year, and the ensuing hoarding you mention, probably represent one of the most important turning points for public coin collecting in the history of the hobby. For my time, far after 1964, it seemed like a miracle to find a common wheat cent or a common silver dime or quarter in circulation. We had no idea what came before, when people dumped almost anything into circulation. I can&#039;t even imagine a time when one could pull a 20 cent piece from circulation. That must have been an exciting time to collect directly from circulation, in stark contrast to now, which really doesn&#039;t offer too much excitement.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
