Spending a few hours a day in an Antique Shop has given me a new perspective on life. I have had the chance to talk to many of the customers that pass thru and listen to their stories. I have met war heros, One Medal of Honor winner, artist and just adverage folks living their lives the best they can. Sooner or later in the conversations they will tell me of their collections of Teddy Bears, Cameras, Trains and everything imaginable including coins. The most exciting so far was a 5 gallon Bucket of circulated coins started by her husband that is too heavy to be moved. Started in the very early 50's. He is gone now and she does not know what to do with the coins. Anyway I assured her that I could move the bucket and suggested that under no circumstances should she clean the coins or cash them in at a coin star machine. LOL Only time will tell if I get a chance at that one.~lucky2
