<p>[QUOTE="Mac McDonald, post: 7385441, member: 117420"]There were several that came along one way or another in a short span...a few of them in one "lot" from a great aunt: a 1928 Lincoln...brown/circulated, nothing special, and age-wise only 30 years-old at that time in 1958...but I already liked numbers and symmetry and old-things of history, plus it was the oldest dated thing I had ever seen, and it just grew from there. Then there was an 1847 Large Cent, circulated but quite decent with no marks, etc., a 1902-S Barber 50c, better than most heavily-worn examples, and an 1890-O Morgan, only around VG, but the neatest thing I had ever seen.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
