New Member just saying hello from Minnesota USA

7 posts
Actually joined the site a while ago, but life got busy am just now getting to poking around. Very nice looking site, and it seems like many interests are represented.

I am taking it slow, just getting my toe in the water by trying out trading Kennedy Halves, which are a coin I particularly like. I entered in a bunch I have, and ones I'm looking to trade for..hopefully I did this correctly and people can see which is which :`. We'll see how this goes.

Compared to many I guess I'd qualify as a casual collector; not into real high end, but I very much enjoy the humble collection I have, learning from other collectors and annoying friends, family and my Grandkids with showing them interesting things I acquire. I like especially enjoy the artistic, historical, and sociological aspect of these old, rapidly becoming obsolete artifacts we call coinage. Add that all up and it says just what you were thinking: I'm a nerdy old guy.

Anyway, looking forward to this new little adventure. Here's to the journey! Cheers!

Welcome to Numista!

Kennedy halves were also the first series I actively collected in earnest. I would order hundreds of them from the bank, and it didn't take me long to find most of the dates and mintmarks. I even found a few proofs! Never an 1987, though.

Good luck!
Welcome aboard. I took a few months poking around the site before I joined in on the forums as well.

Just a little tip though, posts like this should go in the "free discussion" section of the forum, the "numista website" section is for reporting faults with the site or making improvement suggestions.
