    Great collection !
    Always delighted to see young folk collecting with enthusiasm and a discerning eye.
    Most people begin collecting items of this caliber when finances allow, usually when they are in their 20's and 30's etc.
    You got an excellent head start in your field - and you should be way ahead of the rest by the time you hit your 30's.

    Keep it up :)

    Did you inherit part of the collection to begin with ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 988 ✭✭✭1shot16


    Nope only a single Kennedy silver half dollar was all that was given to me and it started it all off.
