<p>[QUOTE="craton, post: 1013, member: 667"]As with most, my Grandfather sparked my interest in coin collecting. My Grandfather was a big part of my life until he passed away when I was about 7 or 8. He spent most of his time gardening and playing with his coins. With him being such a big part of my life, it was only natural that I'd acquire his interest in coins. I still have an old whitman folder that has my pre-school ability hand written name scrawled across one of the pages. </p><p>When he passed away, all of the coins were put up and by that time, we actually lived across state from him. I still had an interest in coins but no one to guide me along with it so it fell to the way side for many years until my Grandmother had my Grandfathers extremely large collection of mostly lower end stuff distributed between 6 of us (his kids and grandkids). I immediately was bit with the collecting but again. That was about 7 years ago and there has not been a day go by since that I haven't thought about coins.</p><p>Jason[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
