I had bought many coins in the past at the Gimbels in the Green Acres Shopping Center in Valley Stream, Long Island. It was quite a large section...
Thanks Roman Collector and Ryro. Your replies are greatly appreciated.
A friend of mine gave me some coins in very poor condition to try and get me interested in ancients. Two of them have a big “M” on them (like the...
I guess I was wrong to post my 1960-D coin here. My apologies to all for confusing things.
As long as we are on 1960-D cents, I came across this while searching rolls. I know there is no premium. I was just looking for an opinion on S...

Funnny timing.... the Chinese restaurant I mentioned in my previous post changed hands and all the old notes are gone. The new owners have started...
There are displays like this here in NJ. Locally in the Bridgewater area there is one at a local Portuguese restaurant and another at a Chinese...
