Miscellaneous

I first began to collect coins when I was very young and actually acquired a considerable number of different types from what was then in circulation.   I eventually gave up the hobby, however, when I married, due to financial and other considerations.   In recent years, though, I have picked up where I left off and the following pages depict the present state of my collection, all of which currently resides in a safe deposit box in a local bank.

1897-O (minted in New Orleans) Morgan dollar in almost uncirculated condition
