Hey some cool coins I've found. From top left: 1944 British coin, top center:1876 indian head, top right: 1921 morgan silver dollar (great condition!) bottom left: 1967 British coin, bottom center: 1788 Massachusetts Commonwealth ha;f cent, bottom right: 1986-s lincoln penny. Thanks!
1921 Morgan is quite common and at least worth its weight in silver. 1986-s Lincoln is a proof and to me I would keep it (not worth much though) 1967 British One Penny is common and little value the 1867 Indian head is a nice find ..If i calculated correctly in G4 it should be at least worth $25-$30. (So says the 2010 redbook) 1788 Massachusetts I am not sure about..if real it may be worth something,
Thanks alot. I like the proof too. (its very shiny!) I have many more indian heads also, but this one was definitely the best grade. I would also say g4. It is easy to read liberty, but still worn. I hope the 1788 is real. that would be a great find.
That Massachusetts half cent is a good one if it's authentic. However I don't think anyone can give you an opinion on it without a better pic. Maybe take a pic of just that coin with better lighting(both sides) that shows the details and start another thread for just that coin. edit. I see you already started a thread on it.
thanks i will. I will post in a few minutes. It is very worn, but On the back i can still read half cent which i think is good.
Thanks. I just googled and I found a coin dealer very close to me. Tomorrow i will go and see the grades of these and see if the 1788 is real. (I hope)
Better collection than what I had when I was 12! Welcome to the forum, I bet you will have quite a collection when you are an 12yr"oldcollectr".
Thanks. I really am 12. I have a bigger collection, but i am most curious about these. I love Indian head pennies and i am trying to get all of them. ( i have 13 now) (alot to go)
Cool stuff. The British 1944 1d looks like it has been cleaned possibly, that date is fairly common, and lists for .25 cents US in 'fine' condition according to my Krause Standard Catalogue of World Coins, and a list price of $14 USD in Uncirculated. The 1967 British penny is quite common with a mintage of 654,564,000 - according to my book. And it lists for .25cents in Uncirculated. So did you find out anything about your 1788 Massachusetts coin from whomever you were going to take it in and show it to?
I am 52 and still don't have all the Indian cents. A local auction had a complete book, so I took $1000 bucks to bid, It started at $1000 but went for almost $3,000. You are going to have to get a job to complete this set. Check prices for the 1877. Don't pass up a good deal on a genuine key, they just get more scarce and expensive. I wish I'd have bought some keys when I was a 12 yr old.
The Morgan Dollar is definitely a keeper. Though this is a common date, it is a nice type coin and is worth $21.95 in silver (at today's prices). That is a nice little collection. Keep it up! (I would keep all of them at this point, lol)
