Who was alive in ‘45?

The end of WWII and the beginning of a new era in economic growth!
And why the desire to highlight this important year in history?
Because of this nice little reminder I found in my collection - isn’t she SWEET? Let’s see your 1945 greatest finds!!

    Great looking coins.
    My grandparents and dad were around at that time.
    Here's the pennies and War time silver in the raw from my collection. :)







    Wanted to have them slabbed but was told it was not worth the effort :blush:

    I was already three years old in '45, but had not started to collect coins yet.. Not long after that though, when I started as a paper boy.... yep, then coins got my attention. Cheers, RickO

    @vulcanize
    If you plan to keep them for your collection and not to sell or deal the coins then I think yes they are worth getting graded ....

    @Twobitcollector - loved the birthday set - nice coins!

    I wasn’t around yet and was hanging in the void.
    Here’s one from my files though just to add to the mix.
