Whizzer Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Hello you guys. I started collecting with my father around 1958. It's been on and off, now it's on. Coin collecting brings my father back to me. I can sense him looking over my shoulder. He never bought anything, he just went through his change. I think his best find was a '14D cent in not too good shape. He'd found every Lincoln Cent except the S-VDB. He loved Indians. (Not East Indians, Indian cents.) And I love the look, too. Coins are beautiful to me. Man, I have to tell you, before registering here I registered at another numismatic forum site, which shall go nameless. It had the usual general topics, Halves, Cents, etc., but when you went into a topic to read or post a thread it was all X-rated adult stuff not related to coins, at all. It scared the pants off me (well, not literally). I'm afraid now it has my e-mail. Has anyone else seen that forum and dealt with it? Anyhow, it's good to be here.

thedeadpoint Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 I don't know those forums but I can tell you, as someone who was apprehensive about joining a forum, you have come to a great place. Welcome! This forum is filled with friendly and very knowledgeable collectors. If you stick around, you will see why so many people have so many posts - we love this place. Welcome, once again! - George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topher Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 I'm on a few forums. This seems to be the one I visit the most, but I think I know which forum you are referring to. It has had some real spam problems over the last few days. Welcome to Coinpeople. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whizzer Posted April 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 You gents sound all right to me. I'm sure I'll be happy here. Like so many others, I like Lincolns, Indian Cents and Walkers, mostly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
