The next time I get my hands on a roll of uncirculated 1916-d dimes I'm going to do the same thing. It's a way to generate income without having...
Speaking of pennies, my wife and I throw all of our change into a container so that I can look through it. This past week I found a 1910 lincoln...
Under enough magnification, you might also see Jefferson waving out of the window at Monticello.
The simple solution to the problem of currencies becomming worthless is to collect gold and silver coins at prices fairly close to the bullion...
I've purchased bullion coins and lower priced commemoratives from Ebay with pretty good luck so far, getting about what I expected and wanted. I...

Of course, there are always the poor cousins of the dollar coins - the Eisenhowers. Someday, somebody is bound to collect them. I like the idea...
