<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dreamer94, post: 297161, member: 6449&quot;]My first coin was an 1880 Morgan dollar in AU condition that I got from my grandmother.&nbsp; I kept it for 40 years under the impression that it was really valuable and then discovered that it was one of the most common issues and wasn&#039;t even in mint condition.</p><p><br /></p><p>I do remember exactly what coin rekindled my interest in collecting in early 2006.&nbsp; My son was reading a book for school, that featured a 3-cent silver piece, hole-punched and used as a necklace charm that was passed down to the boy in the story.&nbsp; I remembered that I had a real one and I took it out to show my son.&nbsp; It was in AC (about crap) condition.&nbsp; Didn&#039;t even have a readable date.&nbsp; Out of curiosity, I went onto ebay to see what they were going for, found one almost immediately that I bought for my son and I was hooked again.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
