Broke, how did you go about getting most of your coins? Coin shows?


Most were gifts from my parents bought from Louisiana Gold and Gem (I think that is the name) and from individual dealers. I've picked some up from flea markets over the years but the bulk from Louisiana Gold. Which is crazy overpriced imo.

See, to me that is awesome! My goal this year is instead of the "traditional" Christmas gifts for my kids and nieces and nephews, is finding some Morgan or Peace dollars and giving them instead. We usually spend around $50 for niece and nephew anyway, so it would be perfect! My problem is getting my wife on board.

Russian mentioned earlier that he likes to give gifts that are realted to birth years and what not, and that is so neat. Something I have never thought about before. Granted, the kids will probably open them now and treat them as if it is clothes inside, or try to spend it, but one day, it could really mean something to them.
