Great Coin, even greater story! Both of my parents were born in 1908, just a few years after your dad. I put together a type set of 1908 coins...
Well my favorite coin hasn't changed since this was asked a few months ago in another post, but I can now post pictures of it, because I have it...
I prefer circulated coins. But, I still go with the best I can find within my budget. This would definitely be a keeper for me because of the...
Finally made it home. My fractional note is in far worse shape than I thought. It isn't like the one you posted, though. Here is a quick picture I...
This brought back a lot of memories, from a long time ago. I grew up (well, I'm not sure I've ever grown up, lol) working with my dad on anything...
Outstanding write-up, @Collecting Nut! You've done a very good job researching it, too, as far as I can tell? Since I love history, very enjoyable...
My thoughts exactly! I collect regular issue coins. I can appreciate uncirculated and proof coins, and I have a few of them (they were very...
I don't think so? But it's been quite a while since I've looked at it. Will be a couple of weeks before I can check and let you know. I know it's...
I'm a long way away from home right now. I've got pictures of the front and back of the $5 note, but not the 50 cent one. They aren't that great,...
I've got a $5 Confederate note from Shreveport Louisiana. It's not worth anything to speak of, I'm sure. I only got it because it was from...
Happy Birthday, early! I got you beat! I've got you beat, too. June 30th I'll be 74, if my wife doesn't kill me first for my "Coin addiction"....
I agree. I love the design, and the toning. @AuldFartte and @Gilbert, love them! But, I'm one of the "weird" ones, I guess, lol. I love...
Happy Birthday. Nice CSA note and very good writeup. Enjoyed it very much. I recently purchased a $5 CSA note printed in Shreveport, LA. I don't...
I think you did quite well. I've done similar, buying a few from LCS (who doesn't generally have Ancients) to try to attribute them, and haven't...
Well, I looked at it and saw there were no bids. So, I thought I would "start the bidding", just so I could say I bid on it. Then I saw that the...
I have a Franklin Half that I will swap you for them! :)
@galba68 very nice cleaning job. It's good to have friends!
Here's the best 2 of my 4 half cents: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] I also have an 1803 (really rough) and an 1828 twelve star. I love...
It's your money, to spend on what you want, and to decide how much you want to spend. It's your Coin to decide if you want to clean it, or not. It...
