<p>[QUOTE="BRandM, post: 1093417, member: 22729"]Thanks for all the advice guys. I did look to the Krause site for the Haxby CD's on obsoletes. They have the whole series for $200.00 which is a little rich for me, so I think I'll start by buying the New Jersey and Pennsylvania ones first. Right now I want to concentrate on Jersey because it's where I live. A lot of what I have seen so far I can relate to because I know the state very well from my truck driving days. It's pretty interesting what Chris said about my interest in counterstamped coins maybe tying in with the obsoletes, because there are a couple I've found so far that do. The notes from Beverly, NJ may help me find a bit more information about two Beverly companies who counterstamped coins in the 1850's. One. a furniture manufacturer named Pine & Patrick, I've been researching for 6 or 7 years now with a fair degree of success. There are still some loose ends I need to tie up, and the signatures on the Beverly notes may help me do that. I'm loving the obsoletes already.</p><p> </p><p>As far as becoming addicting, I hope it does. I love getting involved in something like this that really interests me. Again, thanks to everyone for the great advice. I'll be sure to post pics of anything I buy and to ask questions from the experts on the forum. </p><p> </p><p>Bruce[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
