Coin collecting is a fun hobby that anyone who has the time can do. A coin's history and its development can be learned by actively collecting them. At one point in time, between 1838 and 1933, the United States issued gold coins for circulation.

Tough Times..............
I know that we are all starting to feel the pinch of the rapidly rising cost of living. For example, a LARGE portion of my coin purchasing budget now goes into my gas tank. Therefore, I was wondering if any other CCF members were thinking about ( or having no other choice ) to sell coins from their collection just to make ends meet? ( coin collecting is expensive during good times and now it can really be hard to fill that dansco 7070 ) I truly hope that this is not the case for us die hard collectors, but we all have that mortgage (rent), food, gas etc... to deal with and as the saying goes " you gotta do what you gotta do" to keep your head above water. not knowing where it will end or how bad it could get I have started to consider what in my collection I would give up first. Fortunately I have not been pressed to make any sacrifices yet............... and I will hold out till the bitter end. (unless my wife decides she has to eat
) I feel that the American will to survive will prevail, so I will hold on to my gold and silver ( what else will be left ) until they knock on my door. These are the times that can again make us strong, we just need to stand together. So...........how do you stand ?
