<p>[QUOTE=&quot;900fine, post: 146061, member: 6036&quot;]Ya know, it&#039;s been an interesting ride for me.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>My father passed away in 2001 - on Memorial Day. He was a WW II veteran, and served this nation in the US Navy at New Caledonia, Guadalcanal, and Iwo Jima.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I lost Mom 2 years later, almost to the day.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I noticed during those years I was very nostalgic, and that&#039;s why I returned to coin collecting. These days, I can afford things which were out of the question on a paper boy&#039;s income !</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And ya know what I&#039;ve done ? I&#039;ve put together what I call <b>&quot;heritage sets&quot; - date sets for the birth year of a loved one</b>.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>1923 for Dad, and 1928 for Mom.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Since there aren&#039;t many pieces in a set like that, I can go for better grades - I think very highly of my folks.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>peace, everybody...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
