<p>[QUOTE="coinman, post: 1014, member: 17"]One of my ouncles is a sailor. When I was 16 he started bringing me change from his trips around the world. My futher was also bringing me to a local fleamarket where I was allowed to dig in junk boxes and spend a couple $ on coins. At the age of 18, I went to one of the coin dealers I new and asked how much he was going to buy my jar with doubles so I could buy other coins I missed. When I heared the price I was getting, I said "hey, if I sell those piece by piece like you do, I will get 10x that ammount of money".. I asked another dealer the same question and explained to him my "interest" to sell them piece by piece. He told me I could put them on his table and sell them myself if that was going to get me more money! A year later I knew what I'd like to do better.... become a coins dealer!! 10 years later, I am still not a full time coin dealer but still want to help this great hobby and become a full time coin dealer!!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
