    A couple of months ago I found a coin in the dirt and people on this &nbsp;forums said it was a winged liberty dime, now I started collecting coins lol. Well I just recently found out my late grandpa had a coin&nbsp;collection&nbsp;the whole time. Since I'm at a lost I figured the good people on this forum might be able to help me out again. I went through them all and labeled the ones that I knew, and placed ? marks on the ones I didn't. Anyone care to help?<br><br><br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]&nbsp;<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br>[​IMG]&nbsp;[​IMG]<br><br>I know its a lot of coins &gt;.&lt; any help will be very-much appreciated.<br><br>

    Japanese 1 yen from the year Showa 37 (1962). This is still circulating currency there and it's probably worth face value, which is a bit more than a cent at the current exchange rate.

    That '28 Peace Dollar? Please tell me there ain't a hole in it and that the reverse shows no mint mark.......

    It's hard to read what you are saying with all the $#*@*&?!<> symbolism between words...
    You have some pretty coins there.
    They are from all over the world, and there are a few US coins strewn in, along with a very few 'tokens'.
    All very nice, but minimal value from what I can see.
    Like most average collections, it is loads of fun, but won't make you rich.

    Another hint on getting better responses: Sideways and upside-down pics are very hard to look at.

    I think you would get a better response by seperating them and starting new threads because it is just a lot to see and I agree that straight photos of the coins is better than upside down and so.

    Green18, I believe it is a 1928 Peace dollar buddy.

    They made more than half a billion 1962 one-yen coins, and the Japanese JNDA catalogue doesn't even list a price for that one in that condition.

    Also, it would help to show the dates of the coins.

    1. Not sure the Grandpa would have loved your comment.

    2. Just the 1923 dollar alone should bring about $23 for the silver, some other coins got silver as well.
