Call your local coin stores, "We Buy Gold & Silver" stores, or pawn shops. Given all the counterfeit silver coming from China, nowadays a...
Beyond the reject bin, I might feel self conscious. For instance, I don't get down on my hands & knees to look underneath a Coinstar machine....
On my Kennedy: No missing serif on Liberty "I" and no Reverse broken rays. And pretty sure it does NOT have the straight "G", but not entirely...
I have only one 1964 Proof Set. My dime's 9 looks just like yours... definitely NOT pointed. [IMG] (That's not a gouge on the dime; it's a slight...
When I see coins in a Coinstar's reject bin, I take 'em. Never a problem. And I don't feel a bit self-conscious. AFAIK, those coins are fair game...
When and where did you find your coin? I bet it was part of the Great American Coin Hunt.

Yes, MEK is better than acetone for dissolving organic contaminants (oils, grease, etc). Organics are common on circulated coins, right? But that...
I believe you misunderstood what Dan is selling. My understanding is, for $300 (or $475 for a holed coin) Dan will overstrike the host coin you...
2019 is the first time the American Liberty Silver Medal is 2.5 oz. (Previously it was 1 oz.) For that reason alone, I expect it will sell well....
I'd love to have 2021 Morgan and Peace commemorative dollars. But I'm losing hope. That is, the Bill must pass both the House and the Senate, right?
Thanks.
I'd like to get one too. What is a G&S store?
I prefer a less-cluttered look for medals. And the silver is MUCH cheaper. Win-win. [IMG] Hopefully there's more than one silver version...
Congrats! That coin is a keeper. And maybe more... http://coinsite.com/wp-content/uploads/1937d-3-legged-buffalo-nickel.jpg
