Flea Market Finds

Found this in a grab box with foreign coins and bought it for $4.


I got these for $1 each from a box of holed and damaged wheat cents. Are they genuine clipped planchets like I believe them to be? The 1955 cent shows a minor blakesely effect but they others don’t have it.


And finally... I found a horribly damaged 1909 wheat cent in the same box as the clipped planchet cents. This was also $1.

How did I do? All replies are welcome.

For $1.00? Looks like coins I would buy! Damaged or not!

 

Nice finds, I have a small collection of coins with character, people who don't love collecting coins always seem to gravitate towards the odd/interesting

 

I'd buy all they had of clips at $1.00 each. You did fine.

 

I like the character of the 2-cent piece.

I think the top two clips look genuine, but the bottom one looks fake.

 

The 2¢ Piece is cool, that coin served its porpose. It is a large motto.
Clips are ok, a little pricey. For condition.
The 1909 would be the sleeping dog.

 

Coins with a story. My kind of coins! Well done.

 

Found a 1868 two cent, in F, for less than $20.00, at a flea market this week.

 

The clips look genuine and the price was good, the two cent for $4 was also good, I would have passed on the 1909.
