Preface
Forty-Plus Years of Looking for Treasure
I became a coin nut at about six or seven years old, when I found a half dollar lying in the grass in my backyard. I'd like to say that it was the beauty of Miss Liberty on the obverse of my newfound treasure that fascinated me, but at that age, the eagle was more my speed and the fact that it was large and shiny. It was the biggest coin I had ever had in my pocket. I had found a treasure of great value; I could buy ten sodas or maybe fifty pieces of candy at the corner store. Now I had a major dilemma. I couldn't spend it and keep it, too. I'll let you guess what a seven-year-old boy decided. For many years on my birthday, I used to receive "Peace" silver dollars from a friend of my dad's. I wish I still had those coins but I don't. I'm sure they are still out there somewhere or in someone's collection. My dad and uncle brought me coins from where they served in WW II and I still have some of those. From time to time as many have done, I'd find Canadian coins in my change, and I'd save them because I thought they were special finds. Even though I didn't know much about collecting, my fascination with coins continued.
