The book is pricey, but less than a Saint. 

I wrote that wrong. I meant to say get his book and read it and save up for a saint. They have always been my dream coin. One of these days before the good Lord calls me home I'm gonna own one. Somehow someway. Don't know how I'm gonna pull it off yet but I'm gonna own one.

You'll get it, Hog.  The book is enjoyable reading and will help educate you, too.  When you get close to buying one or seriously researching, we have threads here to resurrect including the SAINTS BOOK thread.

I may slowly save up for one and read his book. Seems like everytime I try to save up for a coin I end up needing the money. Vehicle breaks down or something. I wish I could find me a steadier job. The weather affects me a whole lot also. Winter months are horrible. I could do good if it didn't rain and snow everyday. 

Awe, now, it will be alright. That will just make it that much more special when you do get it! If we had the money to just buy them all the time, you'd have your collection over and done with in no time and it would mean nothing. Having to work for ANYTHING in life increases its value... 

I don't know if I really have anything that I want, coins or anything else. I am really a very simple, low-mainterance person. I think I enjoy looking at these coins and learning about what I have. I'm not gonna go out and spend money on a coin that I don't have. It doesn't have to be all shiny. I kind of like the ones that have a story, like I do. I didn't sit in a castle in an untouched room and get to do nothing all my life...such as a mintstate coin. I have scars that show I have lived and make me who I am. I like to see what these coins have been through. Of course, that is only up to my imagination since I wasn't there, but I do like to wonder and occasionally speculate. But that is the beauty of it all. I will never know so it is a neverending story. You see as long as it happened at the mint, then it stops there. But the possibilities outside the mint, now they are endless. 

You'll find your treasure, it just may not be what you think. Good luck, @Hoghead515, and don't forget, our treasures aren't always found in money or material things. Keep your heart, eyes, ears, and mind wide open and absorb every minute and your dreams will come... Just Keep the faith. Have a great afternoon! ❤️
