Here is the brand of grille cleaner I use to get gunk off of filthy coins. It's the "Pex" brand. It does a great job on certain types of dirt....
Just a few minutes ago, I pulled a 1939-P, a 1948-P, a 1955-D, and a 1960-D nickel out of a single roll at work.
As a newcomer to the internet coin community (but a veteran at collecting), I have asked a lot of questions so it's nice that I was able to share...
I assumed that everybody knew what a Carter Quarter was. It is indeed a Susan B Dollar, or as I call them, SBDs.
Tonight was a good night for pre-1960 nickels. I found pennies from 1929-D, 1959-D, 1960-D, and a really nice 1964-D that is a solid AU if not a...
Most of these coins came from rolls but a few of them from the register at work: pennies from 1929-D, 1959-D, 1960-D, and a really nice 1964-D...
Was the 90% a '64 or was it a Barber, Walking Liberty, Franklin, or older design?
Thanks.
Excuse my ignorance, but what does RPD mean when describing a V nickel from 1883?
Over the last week I've found a 1944-D and a 1946-P. I usually find many more wheats, but I've been on third shift where I don't get to look...
At work, there have been many coins spent by customers that were worth far more than face value. I think your theory is correct, as is the fact...
At my job, I've found several remarkable coins: 2 steel pennies V nickel 2 war nickels buffalo nickel 30+ silver Roosevelt dimes silver quarter...
I think it was pretty amazing. I couldn't believe it when he handed me the Franklins. The third half was spent with some post-'70 Kennedys.
Somebody came into the store a few months ago and spent 2 Franklins, a '52 and a '53. Later, I got another one in the same manner. I believe it...
Another find with an S mintmark is this 1976-S silver bicentennial quarter. I collect biceys (even though they're not worth anything) and I found...
Some days I'll open a roll of pennies and there will be 6 or 7 BU or AU pennies with an odd shine to them. They'll mostly be from the '60s and...
The latest San Francisco-minted coin that I pulled out of circulation was a 1946-S nickel that I yanked out of a roll on 11-28 (today is 12-1).
I was recently on a jury. The trial was a domestic dispute trial, and we sentenced the defendant to 9 months in county jail. We could have sent...
You're having mad luck. Reminds me of my silver dime finds of a few months ago.
It's almost ironic that they disappeared at about the same time the cheaper claddy coins were being introduced.
