I used to collect a lot more in my youth. Now that I have money, I just make a
point of picking up some older interesting stamps. Last year, I was at a
fleamarket and found some stamps with trains on them. I just had to pick them
up. Yeah, when you work with change, thats how you do it. I too started a lot of
my coin collection as a paperboy. Nice. Then, when I worked at the mall I was
able to continue. Silver certificate? wow. that sounds rare... blue. I'm going
to have to look this up.
