[QUOTE="jester3681, post: 2311199, member: 53130"]So one of my major projects for 2016 is to catalogue the collection I inherited from my grandfather when he passed away in 2004. It has been living in my mom's basement until last week when I brought it home with me. Apparently other members of the family got the silver and gold coins, and as the youngest, my brother and I got the one and five cent boxes. A brief look in the boxes shows a very well organized collection of Lincolns, from 1909 into the early 2000s, a selection of Indians, Jeffersons, Buffalos, and a variety of other coins and numismatic items tucked in five large boxes. My grandfather spent his entire life in Toledo, Ohio, so I have dubbed the hoard the Port Lawrence Collection, named after the settlement that eventually evolved into Toledo. As some of you know, I picked up a copy stand last month, and just ordered my camera and lens, so I'll keep this thread alive as I work through the collection and catalogue the coins.[/QUOTE]
