Iāve thought about this quite a bit.
For me, MDāing is more about uncovering historyā¦ā¦..holding a cent, a skeleton key, a political button, a token, and thinking āWow! Tell meā¦.whatās your story! Whereāve you been? What lives have you touched?ā and so on.
It is for THAT reason. The fact that if not for me coming alongā¦ā¦this item may very well have been erased forever. I continue the story of every item I uncover.
That is why I donāt think Iāll be able to sell ANYTHING whether it is a CrackerJack toy or an honest to goodness $500 valued coin. I'll be attached.
Who out there is like that? And to whom doesnāt it matter? Can you or can you not let your finds go?
