New to the hobby and site..favorite find
Posted: Fri Dec 03, 2010 7:23 pmI've been following these forums for a couple of months now and finally decided to join. Just about to graduate college and have been separating copper coins for over a year now. While working over the summer at a local highway dept. during the annual "junk week" pick up I noticed an old suitcase that was worth looking through.
Found some old Civil War confederate currency, 100+ year old stamps and an envelope marked '2 Indian Pennies'. The envelope contained a 1907 IH and an 1863 Civil War token. Needless to say, this has further my interest in the hobby. I know it's unlikely that this type of thing will happen again but I'm hooked.
Just wanted to say thanks to all who have been contributing to these forums and I look forward to sharing experiences with you all.
