I always order a mantis egg from Insect Lore so the kids can watch them hatch (usually about 200 or more). After they all emerge, me and the kids...
There's nothing really special about this coin except that it has silver in it. Honestly, it's too worn for me judging from the pics. I'd likely...
Break it free from it's plastic cage and enjoy it, don't worry about what 3rd party opinions think of it.
All I can say is, wash your hands after handling that cent, those chemical markings might not be biologically friendly. :thumb:
Since I don't collect paper money, I grab them and shove them into my wallet until I decide to spend them. :)
Details - Improperly Cleaned would be my grade. Such a shame too, looked like it was a nice coin until it was cleaned improperly.
No, more like anyone who purchases these to actually swallow deserve to choke on them. :thumb:
Yup, I paid around $15 or so for mine and it ended up having about 5.5 steps as well.
As a collector, holes bother me. I wouldn't pay that price, I likely wouldn't pay more than $30 if I had to buy it. Most coins with holes unless...

My definition of cheap would be if you buy the $15 dollar pair of shoes that will last you 3 months instead of the $40 pair that might last a year...

1960 - 1980 would likely mean they are commemorating 20 years since he was elected into office and the 1984 coin is commemorating 20 years of the...
Hurry, you must lick them clean, there's no other way or these are ruined for life! Why...
It's no doubt the same coin, I think you just got fooled by the different lighting and what not in the auction photos. I'd imagine if it was a...
If I have more than 10 bills in my wallet, I don't like sitting on it as it makes my bum go numb because my wallet is thicker, so I'd rather have...
If they're key dates that make them a little more valuable, I'll put them in a 2x2. All others go in my magic penny jar where they will sit for...
I don't think hoarding nickels for investment purposes are a wise long term investment. I'd imagine over time, the cost of storing them would...
