SUBSCRIBER PROFILE: TERRY TRANTOW

  Terry Trantow writes "I joined the ANA as a junior in 1961
  because I had been 'into' coin collecting with my Dad, with
  a short gap, since 1953.  Dad had a small container of Lincoln
  cents from which we both built our penny collections in 1957,
  missing only the 1909-S VDB and1914-D cents plus some
  minor dates.   I 'borrowed' out of that container as a kid on
  a few occasions to buy a nickel candy bar, and he may have
  been correct in 'suggesting' I spent some of those missing dates.

  Due to my interest in history and being a consummate collector,
  I discovered the field of medals, then tokens, and will always be
  grateful to Charlie Kappen for his collaboration in producing the
  work on So-Called Dollars in 1962, which set my direction into
  token/medal collecting and for which I will always be in debt to
  him. It would not surprise me to see continued works on tokens/
  medals and its fraternity overshadow that of coin collecting."
