    Well today I decided to buy 1 lb. of world coins for $11 at a store nearby. The guy let me choose as many of whatever coins I wanted in the bin as long as it came out to one pound altogether. One coin popped out at me, and the guy apparently as well. I took it out and he started staring at it confused.

    It was a 2000 American Bald Eagle $10 colorized coin from Liberia, in what seemed to be uncirculated condition.

    Here's a pic I got off eBay:

    As soon as I got home I looked it up on ebay to see how much it was going for.. and I was surprised to see it was going for $23.

    I'm not even sure if that is it's actual value... but I know this coin is probably worth more than the money I paid for the "Grab Bag"

    I can't find this one, but it could be silver.
