Re: 2006 breast cancer test piece coin
Interesting, I'm guessing that the center was designed to have a color applied. Can you tell us any more of the story behind it???

Re: Silver Dollars
Bill is probably right about the two coins, but rather then getting rid of the '65 as scrape silver try and find a young collector to give it or sell it to , its in very nice condition and would make a good starter coin for a new collector. I like the idea of getting the new generation started with ...

Just wondering if anyone has info regarding this as a error ??? Seller has %100 positive feed back so would not w...

Re: Cashing in old bills
Socrispy , sorry if the info provided has not been what you would like to hear. I’m sure that what was offered was meant to help, they are yours now and you alone can decide what you would like to do with them. Your uncle was obviously a collector and it sounds like he collected some stuff that he c...

Re: Cashing in old bills
Ya some times it’s not worth the effort but still maybe you would be starting a new collector if you found a youngster that would buy them from you at face to start a collection. If all you get is face at the bank anyway.
Happy New Year to you and everyone out there that’s part of the collecting clan.

Re: Cashing in old bills

Or find a coin show or sale that is near you and take your stuff there talk to a few different coin dealers. Sorry to hear that you are willing to distroy the currency rather then have someone find som...

Re: Regina 60 Years
Thats it coinguy thanks again, and with a rarity index of 93 it sounds like its not that common, dont see anything there about value but dont have much time to look right now, thats a great starting point for me to do more investigating.

Re: 1955 One Dollar Coin

I was a little unsure of a long soak in the acetone but did try it on one coin . It did a not bad job of rem...
