ezzy Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Hello everybody.my first post. I'm so happy. I'm no stranger to coin forums and I probably been at this for a few years I've learned a lot but I also don't know a lot my biggest problem is with doubled dies. I did say that right, I hope. A few of the sites I been on we're great one was just a little too complicated for my liking, another site seen they were too worried about periods? And so on it was more like a spelling class and you better not say penny, it's cent..lol well enough of that I'm a disabled vet from the Marine corps...oorah! And my psy says this is good therapy. What does a psy know. Actually a few years back I seen the 1982 d small date copper Lincoln cent going for 20 grand .that's all it took. I had a lot of spare time never was interested in coins until I seen that and now it's off to the races. I don't collect coins I find them out there and sell them but I got to tell you I do have my favorites. I started on pennies screw the cent, lol and graduated to all kinds of coins but I went after the ones I can get the most of, ie .. presidential dollars, Susan B's, Sacagawea ,quarters. I live next to an ice machine and a laundromat right down the road from me yep you guessed it I took advantage and still am. The ice machine was spitting out presidential Sacagawea Susan B's for a while. The ice is $2 a bag and of course if you don't have two singles you can throw in a five or a 10, nothing bigger than a 10. So I would throw 10 after 10 after 10 in the machine and I just hit the change button so far I got two Susan b far date, 16 cheerio coins (just kidding) no cheerio and a bunch of almost uncirculated presidents when I actually look at how clean those president dollars were I fell in love I thought then came the state quarters and all the errors they have, which I'm currently working on now cuz I got tired of the pennies. Long story short, oh this is a short story, I'm here to learn like any rookie I'll always be a rookie okay I'm through. Thanks for letting me blah blah blah.

Kleavelend Posted January 1 Report Share Posted January 1 Well thank you! Now I don't feel so lost by myself... Double dies.. which sites did you learn about them from? And you say you have already sold coins? Can you give some direction on that part also? Thank you again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otter4 Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 Been doing Morgans for years and now I'm interested in Washington quarters. I am no expert, but I know what I like. Intelligent and meaningful feedback that isn't intended feed somebody's ego is always genuinely and gratefully accepted. I respect the experts and I find that the best ones don't talk down to you. It is good to be here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
