That's how most of us old guys started . I recently bought a bag of wheaties mostly 30-40s and the 2 blue Whitmans , but I do throw in a semi key...
Nice , I like them and no since they're not exact copies .
Definitely a Redbook as Chris stated , and State Quarters as Charles 1997 stated as they are easy to find in circulation and have a wide variety...
Very cool bit of history , with a good strike and a lot of meat left . Congrats .
@Morgandude11 Sure say "Bad analogy" and that's it . That's your MO with anything you don't agree with , just dismiss it outright as I've seen you...
I wonder if it's a contempory counterfeit made to fool the merchants back then . Sure doesn't look modern , looks more hand made .
I think yours is an O-106 , but I wish your pics were more straight on . Very nice coin though .

So you're telling me the '64-D is not the same as Chinese fakes , to me they're both copies of a coin that was produced . I actually like some of...
So we might as well just give the Chinese a pass when they sell "copies" of our coins . Like a friend told me you can't have it both ways ....
I like to see them too . I have a '14-D but no 1909-S-VDB . I always thought I'd find one , never did .
No he takes worn coins and "mints" them with a complete die . Morgandudes coin grades MS-67 . Do you think he would take a coin worth thousands of...
