I had to become more discerning, as a collector.

Hi there! Fellow collectors.

What a year, for me. Let's see. Where to begin..

Collecting wise. I had to cut back last year, becoming a more descerning collector. I took a bad fall at work, which almost ended my time on this earthly plain. I fell 12 ft. Onto my head. They worked on me for 4 hours in emergency. I was cut from nose to ear. Went blind for a bit. Concussion, and Heart was having a few issues, but the final result ? A severely broken left arm, and a right arm that just fall out of its socket. Up to 10x a day. Well, I'm getting better. Almost normal now. It did affect my living standard and dollar sign. So i only bought a few coins throughout the year. They had to be top coins at a great price though. On a high note. I sold a gold coin, that i bought in 2006 for $415.00 cdn. I sent it to its new home in Russia for a price of $2880.00 u.s. A nice tidy little profit.

Hopefully, this year is a great year for all you collectors out there, as i hope my year is better than last. Happy new year to all, and good luck on the awards this year.
