    New Member, Old Collector

    Howdy,
    I'm new to this forum, though I've been "lurking" for a couple of days. I'm an older, retired person and avid Cowboy Action Shooter. I've been collecting coins for a bit over 40 yrs. Mostly, my interests have been in Morgan Dollars and the more sought after VAMs and Clashed Die varieties. I took a break for 10 yrs, and now I'm fascinated by the wide world of the Lincoln Cent!
    I've dug into my hoard of pennies, and once I found a couple of error coins, I was hooked.

    So, I'm enjoying this forum and learning lots from here, Copper Coins.com, CONECA, and Coin Help U, Wexler's, and more. There's a whole universe I didn't know existed!

    I'm looking forward to my further education from all of you learned folks.

    Welcome to the forum! There are a lot of forums out there, but you have found the right one for Lincoln cents. I messed with Morgans and VAMming for about 6 years and still love them. I mess with different denominations, but the Lincoln cent has become my favorite. There are so many here with great knowledge, so enjoy. Here is the home page with many different links. http://www.lincolncentforum.com/

    Welcome to the land of Lincoln, my story is like yours. Don't know if I'll ever go back to Morgan.

    Welcome to the forum. Always loved the Morgan dollar, but ended up focusing on the cent.
