Today on my lunch break I went to the coin shop in town to see if I could get wheat cents there. I don't normally go to this shop because I...
Yeah, we're going to eventually get to the larger denomination coins, but we just don't want to do too much at once. He kind of obsesses over it...
The problem is the seller doesn't seem to have the coin in a 2x2. I've shipped in envelopes like this for 10 years with few problems. I frequently...
Yeah, he's pretty coin crazy right now. Every day I give him two foreign coins of his choice and he puts them in an album. He's learned a lot. At...
Five cents is about what I was thinking too. I know my favorite LCS pays 2 cents and sells for 4 or 5, or at least they did a few years ago. I...
I watched this. It was encouraging that they found a few coins. What is discouraging is how much stuff has happened on the island since the gold...
My son got some Whitman folders and wants to do his best to fill them up. I told him I would get some bulk wheat cents next time I go to a coin...

I just tried to keep a few nice representative examples of the different types. Most of the 20th century coins shown here I got from junk bins...
And lastly, quarter and half annas. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Here's the 1/12 annas. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I did some scans of my copper and bronze Indian coins. Unfortunately the scans often don't do justice to the luster and appearance of these coins....
I like series with a clear beginning and end and not an impossible number of coins to get or nothing super rare. But as is often the case I feel...
You have a lot there. At one time I was doing the same thing you are but I gave up on trying to get every coin of every date and ended up selling...
OK, sounds like it's nothing special then. Nothing lost as I had nothing into it. Thanks!
I was putting coins into a Whitman folder with my son, and this one 1946 cent kept falling out. It was really loose and you can turn it all around...
