dbaker221 Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 I'm glad to have found this forum and am looking forward to regular participation. I recently discovered Flickr and have posted some coin photos and a number of comments as well. I am also (slowly) putting together a we site at http://www.valuable-coin-stories.com wherein I wander all over the coin map. I am clearly not a specialist -- don't want to miss anything in the numismatic / coin collecting world. Also interested in model railroading. How could I tie that with coin collecting? How 'bout a hopper car full of double eagles? Sorry... fantasizing again. But I do have a silver medal awarded to one of my relatives / ancestors "for adherence to Duty, May 1857..." When I get my camera back from my daughter I'll send up a photo. Glad to be here! Dave Baker http://www.valuable-coin-stories.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottishmoney Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Welcome aboard, nice site. I particularly enjoyed reading of the Maryland coinage. When I lived in Maryland I lived pretty close to St. Mary's City in southern Maryland. One time when I was there I was talking to someone who mentioned that they had found a couple of Lord Calvert's coins only a few weeks before in a dig.

dbaker221 Posted August 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Scottishmoney, I added the Maryland page because I'm from there -- Baltimore County. Finding one of these coins would definitely make my day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbaker221 Posted September 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 Hi James, Supposedly the family was from Germany (Bavaria), not England as might be expected (at least our branch, who changed the name from "Becker".) How 'bout you? Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
