<p>[QUOTE="LSM, post: 420406, member: 5859"]Clinker, thank you for your post as always very informative. The post got me thinking about the 60's. In 1963 I had to go to a tutor after school to help me with my English. At that time I was struggling big time in school due to my lack of language skills. My tutor was an older lady and I was nine years old at that time and I would go to her apartment after school, that's about all I remember. Except for this one day, after the lessons where finished she handed me this coin and said I could have it. That coin was the biggest coin I had ever seen. It was a 1883 Morgan dollar and that's when my interest in coins started. I still have this coin and it's traveled with me to South America and back a few times. Like Clembo I polished my Morgan to make it look nice and shinny. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Clinker stay safe there's a few more storms out there and don't let the mosquito's get you. :smile</p><p> </p><p>Lou[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
