“Our parents, Leon and Ruhama Hendrickson, were childhood sweethearts. They met in Winchester, Indiana in fourth grade and had been together for 64 ½ years when our mom passed away in 2010. They married when they were 19 years old — our father was then in the Navy— at our grandparents’ restaurant on the only day it was closed: January 1. We have one photo from the occasion, taken the day after, because photography was so scarce during the war. We treasure it.
Our father was a workaholic. He owned a restaurant, farmed 150 acres, was a mail carrier, and owned a roller skating rink. He started selling coins from people’s change at the counter of the restaurant around 1948, and by 1966, he quit his other businesses, sold the restaurant to my uncle, and sold coins full time. They moved the coin operation into our house, installed a vault and an elevator, and the next year sold 100 million dollars worth of coins.
In the early nineties, we started doing TV sales through the Shop at Home network in Nashville, and then we did another show in Danvers, TN called Coin Country. Eventually, we built our own studio in Winchester. Coin Vault is in 60 million households and has been on the air for 30 years." — David and Tanda, son and daughter
