I've recently come to realize that I have been a closet coin collector, but it is now time to say it loudly and proudly!  But be confused though, I am no numismatist - just an amatuer collector. Although I've collected some coins growing up, including some wheat pennies and silver dollars (even a few 2 dollar bills, but those aren't quite coins).  I guess the statehood quarters that have been minted over the last 10 years or so finally got me on the coin collecting kick - and I think I like it.  Now that the quarters are winding down, I have set my sites on the one dollar coin presidential series that are currently being minted.  

Here are some coin collecting websites:
