<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 163755, member: 4552&quot;]This gets asked on all forums, by friends, at coin shows, etc. For me it is really easy.Way, way, way back when I was a kid my Dad came home and showed me a Silver looking, brand new, shinney Lincoln Cent that just came out. It was the year 1943. He noticed I wanted it real bad so he gave me all the ones he just acquired. He then must have set out to find as many as he could afford and continued to give them to me. I carefull put each one away so they wouldn&#039;t get scratched or anything. Eventually someone invented plastic rolls so they all went into them. He also footed the bill for the plastic rolls. I eventually ended up with 26 rolls of these. Most are like they were in 1943. My dad is long gone now but when I look at those rolls I always think of him and I don&#039;t think any coin could be valuable enough to replace my Dad&#039;s memories. I can always replace other coins in my collection but I could never replace my Dad.&nbsp; </p><p>I also had an Aunt that must have tried to win my favor because she kept giving me&nbsp; these funny looking plastic coins called Missouri Mills. I still have a roll of them but I sure don&#039;t remember her as much as my Dad.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
