My dad gave me a GSA 82 CC that he paid 15 bucks for back in the 1970's. Some F-VF late date Walkers and A LOT of foreign silver coins that he had accumulated from his dad since he was a boy.

I got interested in coins a couple years ago after looking through some coins my wife inherited from her father. He had about 130 Morgans and Peace dollars I examined. Found a 1889CC in this bunch. Been hooked ever since. First coin I bought was a whopper. 1893S Morgan in vf25. Thought if I kept it for 20 years or so I might make a few bucks on it. Mostly I got interested in cents after that. Indians and Lincolns. Also picked up some different varieties of half cents and early cents. Having fun with that.
