With the reserve banking requirements in place in 1964 the currency was hardly backed by metal. The coins may have been silver (except cent and...
The government primarily was lokking for a material that wouldn't attract much attention so it had to look a lot like silver. The cu/ ni clad cu...
Long term trends are probably unfavorable to long popular and widely collected US coins. There will be numerous ex- ceptions but there...
First hit on google "bag cents"....
Mostly all you'll find is '58 to '64 and a few from the mid-'70's. Is this what you want? They shouldn't be too hard to find. If you...
