Michael'sCoin Collection

Background |
I would say that I have been collecting coins around 1990, but it wasn't until 2005, while in graduate school, that I became fairly serious about the hobby. In the 'real world,' I study birds both as a hobby and as a career. Because birding is an outdoor activity, I was looking for something else I could do for fun that didn't require nice weather or daylight to pursue. Coins fit the bill perfectly; since then, I've been actively collecting and learning more about the hobby. I find coin collecting every bit as interesting as I did when I was young - more so now that I have a slightly larger budget to buy nicer coins from time to time. Although my collection is indeed modest by the standards of many other numismatists, I do feel that I have brought a degree of uniqueness to my collection. Perhaps most notably, my Silver Britannia set is one of the highest-graded, most complete sets of that series in the world. I invite my visitors to take a look at my collections and articles - thanks for dropping by! |
