Pennies away!


I absolutely love collecting coins! Did you know that a coin collector is called a numismatist? Look it up.

One of my neighbors got me started and I've loved collecting them ever since. I store them in a big black binder, called the Coin Collector's Album. A great place to get coin collecting supplies is BCW Supplies.

Recently the same neighbor, Butch, gave me an Indian head penny. Some people think that the "Indian" is really Venus, but no one knows for sure. The history of the Indian head is really interesting. I learned about mine at www.coinsite.com.

I'd love to know what you collect. Please leave a comment below.
