PCGs US Coin Forum.

I was drawn to the PCGs websight several months ago. I then became aware of this forum. I must say I have found many of the people here to be very knowledgeable experts in the series that they specialize in. I have found you all also to be very witty and humorous, and very helpful. Here is a little bit of info about me, my real name is Lou, and I love buying proof sets. I tend to focus on the Wheat Cents and the Franklin Halves. Most of my collection is raw. As a kid I used to find many Wheat Cents in change and I loved them ever since and this was my beginning to the wonderful world of coin collecting. It is the love of coins that eventually led me to finding all of you. I find the proof coinage in deep cameo to be among the most stunning of coins ever minted. What a great hobby.
