    I’m 46 now and started collecting coins aged 6 when I was handed an 1886 Morgan.  It was an incredible thing to hold and my father still reminds me how he swapped it for a dollar bill with a waitress when on holiday.  
    Fast forward 4 decades and I’ve a couple of coins kicking about… and it’s been a journey that has never been about anything other than collecting.  My profile says stacker… I am in someways… but I’m not going to collect and stack scrap.  I have proof coins… because they are important… but they are nowhere near as interesting as the ones that have been slid across a bar 🤠 for tequila or dropped by a pirate! 🏴‍☠️ 
    I think the last few weeks have focussed me more on the bullion value of my two sovereigns, my old Morgan, and the bag of Peseta’s as oppose to the numismatic interest and history which someone eluded to the other evening.
    Tonight - I’m reminding myself that the collecting journey is more interesting and important than the bullion weight.  I’m also inspired by the knowledge on this forum - understanding that after 40 years - I know not enough, but I’m doing ok if I wanted to melt and make a few bars.   But which melt pot would I throw the old Racketeers nickel in?  
    £60.58 a gram…. Absolutely bonkers! 
    Cheers 🥂
