<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ewomack, post: 2685997, member: 15588&quot;]My parents bought my first coins when I still had only a single digit age, so I don&#039;t exactly remember the first one. A sewing machine shop in a neighboring town had a small room in the back with coins for sale. I wandered in there on my own one day and came out with cool old stuff from the 1800s. Thus a lifetime obsession began. If the proprietor, who I heard passed away some time ago, wanted to interest a kid in coins, he did an excellent job.</p><p><br /></p><p>In any case, the very first was probably one of the sandblasted, worn thin Liberty Nickels that I still have from my spoiled youth. But which one was the <i>absolute</i> first, I have no idea. A great aunt also gave me a worn Barber quarter and Half around the same time. I really wanted to get her birth year in a Liberty Nickel, but, guess what, she was born in 1913. Let&#039;s just say I never acquired one. But I did learn all about the ultra rare 1913 Liberty nickel before I even broke age 10.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
