Well, JimM recently turned me on to a website which helped me determine the difference between the 1970 small and large date cents. Now, I have...
My guess is 62.
I really need a metal detector! I'm located like 100 miles from coinlover, and have tons of old houses and old churches in mind. Anyway, good...
Pre-1965 would be even better though. 90%!! Anyway, I agree with most of what the others said. You should get some albums for those coins, IMO.
Silver recovered from ground zero??? Was there alot of silver there, in the rubble? And if so, how did this mint acquire it???

Yep. Thats the way to go. My dad and I share 3 bank boxes, which we keep all of our most valuable stuff in. Our bank is conveniently located right...
I still don't understand it. I know toning is natural. But it changes the surface of the coin. It still baffles me how a coin that doesn't...
Wow. Those are all BEAUTIFULL Walkers! Let me know if you decide to sell any of them. I'm thinking those are all MS 64's or MS 65's
You've mentioned some good ones there. I love Walking Liberty halves, and Morgans. Mercs are great too, and may be a good option for a collector...
