    Few..ok, that's a helluva lot of typing LOL. Few questions. The coins are in a "Offical Whitman Coin Folder" which is blue (and you just push the coins in and out of slots. I know it says "official" like it's important, but the cardboard blue doesn't seem right to me. Also, are there any coins in there worth anything? I checked for double dates, nada. The only thing for one of them is the 1949. The "4" looks completely filled up. Any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks,
    Susan

    Welcome:
    You are right the folder is something anyone can buy at a coin shop for about $4.
    Each coin is worth alittle---we can't say how much untill we know the grades but I would say at the least the Wheat Cents---1909-1958 are worth about 5 cents each.

    Nothing There Over A Nickel Apice. Memorial Cents Just Worth A Couple Cents.

    Maybe....maybe not---that is why I posted about the grades---some of the Wheat Cents if in AU or BU could be worth a few dollars each.

    Thanks! I really don't have a grasp on "grading" coins yet LOL I have a digital camera but I tried to take some pics and they turned out really crappy so I think it's time for an upgrade. Thanks for the heads up on the price. I didn't think it was worth too much, but thought I'd make sure.
