Dad was out of town on business and knew nothing about coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Neither did I and no one to teach me. What I DO remember is dad coming home with coins now and then. He&#039;d talk to friends, stop in a shop and come home with something.</p><p><br /></p><p>Still have those coins and know EXACTLY where a few are (that&#039;s good for me). Still got that 1866 Two Cent Piece that eventually turned into an addiction.</p><p>Also have the 1851 Large Cent that I HORRIBLY cleaned as a child and it looks bad 40 years later! What can I say a little kid with a coin collecting set from the Sears Wish book. It came with a &quot;polishing compound&quot; and I used it!</p><p><br /></p><p>clembo[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
