    I'm 35, collected since 6 with about a 10 year hiatus, and currently live in SC.



    << <i>60 seconds per minute, 60 minutes per hour, 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, 52 weeks per year is 31,449,600 seconds per year >>



    Close, but not accurate. 7 x 52 = 364. There are 365 days/year but that would omit 29 Feb.
    So, 60 x 60 x 24 x 365.25 = 31,557,600 sec/yr.image

    When I was born, Kennedy was president, Franklin was on the Half Dollar, and the dark days of October had not yet happened.

    Born in 1962, that would make me 41 this year.

  • 52, going on either 70 or 25 (children are 7, 9 and 13 - guess which ones make you older and which younger). Like MapMaker, I can recall 18 cent/gallon gasoline (the "gas wars" in Oklahoma), and 5 cent cokes. I've been collecting off and on since age 6 (still have some of those coins) and now live in California.

Jaywalker - like that S.L.Q. icon -nice coin! - and I like your quote - have a good friend who fits that description perfectly!!
