Any Coin Collectors Here?
« on: August 29, 2010, 10:02:16 pm »
I am cataloging my WW2 era collection with the intention of making a fairly complete set of medals, coins, paper money, and other memorabilia from the WW2 era.

Any comments would be appreciated.

I will hopefully have all the scans I have made online by the end of the night...  so far i have about 30% of my collection scanned and about a third of that online.

Looks cool.

Whats the criteria for the coins?  Is it the date?

No promises but my parents have a fair amount of old coinage in their loft.  If I can, I'll have a look over the holiday period and see if theirs anything worth sending you for your collection.  As I said though, no promises!!!

Thatd be awesome, yea my collection is pretty extensive, but I primarily collect and catalog items from WW2.  I have some medals and stamps and stuff, but it's mostly paper money and coins.  The interesting thing is that the world was in turmoil and people were going all over the place to fight and somehow items made it to my possession.  Its just really cool to think about.

One item I have that I really like is a driver's license from the era.
