My Collection - Lots of Pics

I just got my 2x2 holders, and binder pages through the mail a couple days ago. I've been having lot's of fun organizing all my coins. My collection is a work in progress with lots on the way.

New stuff (as of Jan.27/09)



Silver quarters (kind of the Canadian equivalent of an SLQ)




I'll start off a list of what's coming soon by mail...

US (RECEIVED JAN. 21st)
x4 Liberty Nickels
x4 Barber Dimes
x4 Indian Heads
x1 1930 SLQ VF-20
x1 2005-S Bison Nickel Proof
x1 Bison Nickel Roll




CANADA
x2 Canada large cents (George V)
x2 Canada silver nickels (George V)
x2 Canada silver dime (George V)
x2 Canada silver quarters (George V)
x3 Canada small cents (Early 30's)
x1 2009 Silver Maple Leaf

AUSTRALIA
x1 2009 Silver Koala


My Current Collection...

US
x19 Mercury dimes
x7 Buffalo Nickels
x1 Ike
x1 SLQ
x1 Silver half
x1 2008 Silver Eagle
x1 1915-S Wheat Cent
Lot's of common wheats, jefferson nickels, dimes, and quarters...

CANADA
x2 Old large cents
x9 Silver quarters
x13 Silver dimes
x1 Silver dollar
x1 Silver 50 cent
20+ commemorative toonies (4 best pictured)
50+ commemorative loonies (20 best pictured)
50+ commemorative quarters (15 varieties pictured)
A bunch of other older and commemorative dimes, and nickels.
Ton's of common circulating currency that I should be spending :P

Some of my favorites...for now. This will change when all my new coins come in the mail.

(NOTE: The 1966 Canadian quarter has some AMAZING royal blue toning around the rim of the whole reverse...it sucks you can't see it too well at all)


Silver Eagle: MS-69 IMO!






The 2x2 holders in pages...

(The wheat cents below are not actually that red, the scanner threw the color way off. The first pic shows what the wheats really look like)








Lot's of luster here, the scanner couldn't take it...



Lot's of luster here too...




ENJOY! And please tell me what you think

They aren't red at all, they're really a toned light brown. My scanner messed up the colors on those cents, except the Lincoln memorial one.

haha well I was right to be in disbelief... oh well.

also. love the mercs. In my opinion, they are one of the most beautiful coins, even when heavily circulated... that and the walker half.

Nice collection! I used to collect quite a bit of Canadian coins as well but have kinda strayed away from it. Might have to get those coins back out someday

Hey! Those are some nice coins you have there.

I have one of those breast-cancer-awareness quarters. I really like it. What a neat idea.
