Kipster Posted January 1, 2023 Posted January 1, 2023 Good morning all, Happy new year to you. I'm new to the forum after lurking around the interweb for a bit, doing a bit of research. I'm a newcomer to the hobby after falling down a youtube rabbit hole, and got hooked on the whole historical side of things. I've always had an interest in English and British history, and hadn't fully appreciated the links that coins had to the rich history of the homeland. That combined with an addictive personality and a relentless attitude for hunting things down was only ever going to go one way. I'm really a copper and bronze man, with the odd bit of silver and gold added for good measure. I'm particularly interested in the late Georgian period, through into Victoria, but the Tudor reign certainly holds my attention. From my previous looking around the site, this looks like a place with a lot of expert opinion, and I'm looking forward to making your acquaintance. Regards, Kip. 3 Quote

Peckris 2 Posted January 2, 2023 Posted January 2, 2023 Welcome to the forums Kipster! With a few exceptions I've become a 'type collector' but I do like good quality copper and bronze; there seems to be more varieties in those series if you're into that side of things. Quote
