Yeah, that's the exact note, and it's in fairly good condition as well.

I'm pretty sure these aren't worth anything. I just bought the lot for the coins' face value, so these were a bonus. Just...

As you know, I’m a coin guy, but a recent auction lot included banknotes, and since the auction price was lower than the face value of the coins themselves, it seemed a good buy.

They’re mostly...

Yeah, I hear what you're saying. I guess my challenge is that I'm collecting Canadian coins, and so the custom albums don't fit very well (if at all).

I'll look into the specific products you...

Okay, coinsafes for valuable coins, got it. Pyro: Do you know of any examples online of the type of binder you're talking about? Most of the ones I saw seemed to be for specific series (ie: all US...

I know this is a bit of a newbie question, and I know it's been touched on a lot in previous threads. Trust me, I've run searches, but it's mainly manufacturer websites I'm having a problem with.

That's GORGEOUS!!!

Thanks all, looking forward to learning lots, asking lots of stupid questions and getting lots of great answers :D

It's quite...

I actually do think of coin collecting as investment: forced savings plan. I don't think of it in traditional investment terms (ie: Return on Investment), but more like a house: something you put...

Goodness... Yeah, you'd thrown me there, since the designs were the same for the half dollars for quite a few years (really only 3 designs since they were introduced).

If you're going to convert...

1930, or 1939 coin?

Yeah, the one above's a Canadian half dollar. On yours, is there a minting "stamp" (sorry, new to this). Under the year, on the front, or on the back under good ol' Georgie's icon it may have a C, a...

Good to know, thanks... Btw, your website seems down. Not responding to any requests.

Also, what's a "series"? Is it all the coins published that year (lunar loons in 2003 here in Canada)?

Is there anything like Coin Prices for Canadian coins?

Hey,

I've been considering starting coin collecting for a while now, and recently watching a show really piqued my interest. Obviously I want to start off doing some research, so what are some...
