Why I Collect Coins

         Ok, you are holding say, a 1899 Cent, now imagine how many people have held it, all the way back from 1899! It was pressed with the technology avalible in 1899. Imagine who could have held that cent, there are so many variables and so many people who have touched it, held it and spent it! it puts you back into 1899 right before the turn of the century! And also it's like finding a little treasure because say this 1899 cent is worth $4.00 it has increased in value by 400 times!!!!! And this halve cent from 1856 is worth $10.00 it has increased 2000 times it's original value!!!!! And I say 1899 indian cent because its one I recently recieved.
