Message:: [QUOTE="Michael Terry, post: 2389853, member: 76710"]In 1977 I  was still recuperating from serving two tours in Viet-Nam.The conflict as they called itWas over in 1975 but I spent over a year in the hospital after it was over.In the mean time my Mom had passed away at an early age with cancer.My Dad married another woman of course she was a lot younger than him.She had three kids that had nothing too do , except still my coins, stamps and  arrow heads.They spent the coins and stamp collection  like regular pocket change. I started collecting  coins and stamps when I was six years old, thanks to my Grand Mother, she gave me one of those  blue books for my birthday, when I was six years old in the first grade.She put a few Pennies in the book which inspired me to get started  looking for the pennies.Back in those days it was not as hard to find them as it is today. I never found the 1909-S VDB,Or the 1922-S or the 55DD. Yes that folder went with the rest of the coins.Now the arrow heads, Spear heads and other tools that they used, The best one'SI. Kept in a cigar box which none of them were not perfect I kept  in a septet ate box.No one admitted as to what happened to them. As you can tell by now, 1977 was not my year.[/QUOTE]
