<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kirkuleez, post: 1427549, member: 36864&quot;]I&#039;m sure that someone in your past was responsible for getting you interested in our great hobby.&nbsp; Mine for instance was my Grandfather and Grandmother Roy and Anna.&nbsp; I can&#039;t think of any better way to repay them for this gift but to do the same for somebody else.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve been trying to think of ways to help new collectors get a nice collection going.&nbsp; I have come up with the Big Brother/Big Sister program for coin collectors.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I think that as a group we could better help new collectors by helping them start a series that they are interested in.&nbsp; I&#039;m not talking about giving away great rarities here, just some spares that most of us longtime collectors have piles of, or old folders to begin their set.&nbsp; And most importantly, literature and honest collecting advice.&nbsp; I have chosen Joedas and his brother Bradarv90 as the first recipients of this idea.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I am looking for a few of you longtime collectors to join me in this.&nbsp; Of course, as with anything, there must be a few rules.&nbsp; First of all, I think that we should follow the contest guidelines for this in that there should no money ever asked of the recipient.&nbsp; Not for coins, Not for postage, not for anything.&nbsp; This is purely voluntary.&nbsp; Second, pick somebody to help.&nbsp; And third, have fun and remember that you are doing a great thing for someone.</p><p><br /></p><p>Help me build the coin collecting utopia.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
