Hi - I am using the name Coin Obsessed because I have been interested in coins for some time. I began collecting in 1968 and my dream is to find that one rare coin. My wife will tell you I spend hours in front of the microscope looking over coins I have picked up over the years. Some from the time I use to build bars. When I pulled an old bar apart there would be plenty of change on the floors that I was allowed to pick up. My son purchased me my first subscription to ErrorScope and I have since renewed it. I first became a member of CONECA in 2004 and just renewed my membership for 2025.
