<p>[QUOTE=&quot;No_Ragrets, post: 26371853, member: 151874&quot;]That&#039;s well before my time (born in &#039;79) and I envy those who were around at those GSA releases. I know very well how hard times were for some back then, even drawing similarities to the present in some ways, but from a numismatic standpoint judging by today&#039;s standards (and prices) that seemed like a Golden Age for collecting... if one could afford it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Alas, the time is now and there&#039;s no Doctor Emmet Brown to wisk us back to that time. I&#039;ve found myself wondering what the common coins must have looked like way back when they were first issued, then I find myself staring in awe at some of the pictures that lots of the folk here (yourself included) post from time to time and it makes me happy simply to look at them, knowing that an &quot;average Joe&quot; could have a chance at having one even if just for a short while.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
