<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2538370, member: 19463"]Generally, if it is a coin, it is in my collecting interest area but I have very few modern coins so they are the closest I have for this thread. Most of my US coins date back to when I was what they call a YN but I bought this half dime a couple years ago because I had never owned a half dime. It is nothing special, not high grade and not slabbed. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]543566[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Most recent of my old but not ancient whim purchases was this Henry III mostly because I did not have a long cross penny and it had legible legends.
