The first thing I would say is that when it comes to protecting your own, there is nothing wrong with that! Approximately 4 years ago, I made the mistake of judging a book by its cover so to speak. Now while I am definitely not the easiest person to get along with, I cannot express my gratitude nor my pure shock that someone like me was actually able to make things right.

Coins, especially rare ones, represent good people making decisions and moving forward and learning how to forgive understand comprehend and value the stories behind the coins.
