I should qualify "...losing friends..." I meant by posting a long rambling message. Some people get turned off by long messages.
You will let us know when you find something nice in roll hunting. I'd like to do that but my wife says to clean up this other stuff first.
At the risk of losing some friends I will tell how that went with me. When I was 5 years old (1948) my aunt gave me an 1883 W/O Cents nickel and...

Here are some of my older Canadians. Keep in mind that these are from my pocket change when I was younger and living in Iowa. There are 2ea 5 cent...

I prefer moderately circulated coins. Coins with some character. Coins that look like they worked in the time period that they came from. That's...
Nice coins. Happy Birthday.
Thanks. I found nothing special. But, there were a lot of nice dimes. About 40 barbers.
Number 1) is my guide. I have some lower grade Morgan's with "character" that you can't get in MS anything.
I see! Thanks to everyone.
Dumped out a tub of old silver dimes to start looking through. So many things put aside in the last 70 years. [ATTACH]
