I think I shoulda have been at this.. up my street completely….as a kid I collected coins and still have a wee tin in my memory box full of shrapnel from around the world. Also a bit of a freak for postcards. can’t get enough of postcards and I feel compelled to purchase one whenever I see a stand…very odd person! lol. Thanks for sharing!
