Have always been interested in coins, their rarity and intrinsic value and always thought it would be cool "if currency could tell tales". I had an "accidental" hunt when I was a kid that yielded quite a sweet haul (more on that another time). With some of the attention that the penny / copper hoarding movement has been gaining, I bought a couple of boxes of pennies and sorted them (about 28% yield). Needless to say, I came across several wheats and other older coins in good shape and it lit a fire under me! I bought more pennies and ripped through them, turned and burned 28 rolls of half dollars today (no silvers but filled up the change bags at my C.U. ). Looking forward to getting some keepers, ultimately selling some for profit to sustain my newly rekindled hobby
