<p>[QUOTE="AdamL, post: 360704, member: 6029"]Around 15 years ago, at age 9 or 10, my dad gave me 2 proof sets from my birth year, 1983. I started showing some interest, asking questions and whatnot, so then he gave me this Morgan. I was hooked. I kind of got out of it during my rebellious years which extended into my early 20's. Then about 2 and a half years ago I needed money really badly. I started going through my coins to figure out how much I could sell them for. Instead I fell in love with collecting all over again, and sold my car instead of my collection. Here's the Morgan that started it all. I'll never sell it. Hopefully I'll have someone to pass it on to some day.</p><p><img src="http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x31/zadacat/DSCN0912.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x31/zadacat/DSCN0916.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>P.S.
