Bio: I am a physician, specializing in Internal Medicine. My education includes undergraduate work at Wayne State University in Detroit and the University of Michigan Medical School in Ann Arbor.

I have been a coin collector for twenty years, counting a short hiatus for medical school. I consider my "specialty" to be error coins, however I am starting again to collect general United States coinage in addition to dabbling in world issues. I recently completed a set of commemorative half dollars in MS63 or better condition.
