well I'm still trying to get my feet wet in this hobby we call numismatics, it can all be overwhelming to a beginner I've decided to pause on the circulated world (junk) silver coins and concentrate more on us coins and tokens that I can fit in to my budget, a follow up on my last post I just heard from the president of the north Carolina numismatic association and I was accepted. well I guest that's all that's going on in my life for now.
