For my 1500 post I figure it is time to do a giveaway! This forum is a wonderful place to learn and teach some of the things we know about our great hobby of kings. Many thanks to all!
I remember when I first started collecting coins around 1995. I was watching some guys selling coins on late night television and got hooked from there. I just bought a book(1996 N.A. Coins & Prices) and would just try to compare prices from the guys on TV to that book. I learned something very quickly, don't buy from the guys on TV.
After a few months of watching that coin show on TV, I finally decided to go to one of the local coin shops in town to buy my first coin. The shop I went to was Fullerton Coin & Stamps. I walked in and a grumpy, cigar smoking guy (the stereotypical dealer) came out to sell me two Morgan's and one Peace Dollar in PCGS MS64 holders. All of which I still own too. Funny thing is, I have never bought another Morgan since as I focused most of my time on Seated and Bust Quarters. Ok, enough with the stories.
Just reply to the thread and Ill pick a name from the hat Wednesday 10/5 at 7pm PST for this ANACS Photo Cert MS65 Mercury Dime.
Enjoy and thanks to all for sharing their knowledge and coins.

Many members on this forum that now it cannot fit in my signature. Please ask for entire list.
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

I enjoyed the story.
I still have my first Morgan I bought at a coin shop six years ago.
