What is money, in reality, but dirty pieces of paper and metal upon which privilege is stamped?

    If it wern't for my grandfather saving unusual coins for me back in the 1950's, I may not have started collecting. His collection of early commems and choice unc Barber coins started me off on a hobby that has lasted 44 years.

    I wonder if my grandparents had an effect on my collecting... when I saw that second Littleton ad for new customers only and I couldn't use my address, they let me use theirs imageimage
