[QUOTE="geekpryde, post: 2031452, member: 36248"]First thing I collected when I got back into coins around 2006 was Kennedy Proofs in TPG Ultra Cameo 69.

It would make more sense If it was 1980, my birthyear, but my 1980 example didn't have any special "look" to it. I completed that Kennedy set, got bored with having ~100 coins all looks the same, so I sold it as a set and used that money as seed money for my new CAC approved Type set. I briefly changed my avatar, but even I couldn't recognize the new image, so I switched back and now my posts stand out nicely and I can find myself quickly. I don't think I'll ever change it, as you wouldn't know who I was! [ATTACH=full]369716[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
