I am old enough that when I was a kid you could put together a fairly decent coin collection by going through your change. Of course, a kid doesn't have much change to go through. Adults at that time surely could, those with decent incomes could.Outdoorag011 said:
Anyone elses dream to own a coin shop?
I had a client who had an extensive collection. He was 10 or 12 years older than me. I suppose much of what he had he got from change or by buying bags of coins. Some he might have bought from dealers or online, at least later in life.
He decided to open a coin shop but didn't succeed. Most of what he sold was gold and silver, rather than collectible coins. He would buy bullion $100,000 or more at a time.
