[QUOTE="Egry, post: 4708927, member: 113686"]I’m new here, and so happy that I found Ancient Coin people! My wife said I was the only one, but I knew others existed. I’m 34, I grew up on a grain farm in western Canada. I met an Aussie girl going to University in Canada, we fell in love and before I knew it I’m living in Australia. We are married now and have two beautiful children a little girl and boy. I own a successful engineering firm which provides a healthy budget for my coin addiction. I started collecting Canadian coins when I was about 10 or so, my first coins were what my Dad and grandparents gave me. Once I had a fairly compete Canadian collection I somehow organically moved into ancients. I have always loved Ancient Rome, their engineering feats have always been something I’ve aspired too. I am by no means an expert in ancients but I’m always learning. Between running my company and enjoying my young family it typically only leaves a couple late evenings a week for my coin interest. [ATTACH=full]1155523[/ATTACH] The CT members are absolutely amazing, unfortunately from my experience it seems to be very rare to find such kind people on a coin forum. [USER=14873]@jamesicus[/USER], great picture, you are exactly what I envisioned, an absolute legend![/QUOTE]
