Nice start. Many ways to go with this collection.

 

What a fine collection!

 

Not a “start...” An addition

 

Those Lincoln cents. One is from the WWI era, the other from WWII.

The Indian cents are nice, one from the 1800's, the other from the 1900's.

My favorite is the misstrike

 

I like the variety of reverses on those nickels too.

I have some that are in really good condition in my own collection

 

My other Buffalo nickel is trash... I scratched in up like crazy and there’a not a date on it...now I have 1 with a date on it

 

The two Eisenhower Dollars are to help identify varieties that look very close, yet are different.

The first is not a coin, it is one ounce of copper.

 

I know

 

Very nice additions to your collection.

 

fun

 

Btw... these were gifted to me! I will NOT give out the name of the person but they have my absolute gratitude!

 

Any coin, especially gifted coins, are a nice addition. For your future posts, please take the coin(s) out of the 2x2s so we can appreciate them without distortion and glare.

 

Got it!

 

Nice coins. Now a word of advice, if any of those 2x2 flips are soft and flexible (several appear to be) they are not fit for long term (or even short term) storage. They contain a pvc plasticizer that will cause irreversible damage over time.

 

Let's be accurate with our terminology for the youngun'.

That piece is "exonumia" . . . . It's much more important than a simple "ounce of copper." In some circles, it might even be considered a "challenge coin" . . . .

Agreed. I would get rid of those with suitable replacements.
