It is a contemporary "barbarian imitation" of a Roman coin. You can see a similar-looking coin for sale here. This link provides a wealth of...
This idea has potential and in fact I've done it with success wherein I at least have been able to go through peoples' change jars and replace...
This coin has a potentially interesting background and history. I'd say it is desirable to collectors of low ball coins in its current state of...
I have a Mint BU roll of 1969S cents stuck in a tube just like that. I bought the roll in about 2005 and I have kept them just how I found them. I...
I feel that the dark surfaces gives the coin contrastive character. I also feel that it helps to provide some context that the coin was likely...
A month is really nothing on here. Threads get bumped from as far back as 2004 or 2005 every now and then. Such posts are typically from new...
The one and only time I picked up boxes of halves (two of them) from a bank they were customer re-wraps. All of the rolls were thankfully full....
With no apparent description or idea of ~who~ the suspect(s) may be, it seems like everyone is going under the assumption that the rarity or value...
I don't see signs of oxidation but I'd say the coin was buried for a while before being dug up and making its way to you.
Pretty cool. I have an unused Whitman cent album from my grandfather. I'd have likely given it away by now but the mintages are blank from 1981...
This is quite true but at this time of year it is often quite difficult to find new bills. The best time of the year to get new bills from banks...
I didn't find any keys or even semi-keys but I was okay with this as I wasn't expecting to. The Indians were nicer than expected. I found some...
No, actually, I think it is a waste of time to go to a local coin dealer. The OP wants rolls with early dates and some Indians mixed in for good...
Coins at that price will surely be heavily filtered and contain almost entirely 40's and 50's cents. The OP wants rolls which contain Indians and...
What would the mint have come out with for a dollar coin in 1971 if Ike had lived a few years longer? Likewise, how much longer would Mercury...
I'd say eBay would be a good place to look for what you want. I used to buy those "unsearched" roll lots on there (from around $5-$8 or so each at...
I used to find coins of varying quantity in the reject slots of CoinStars quite frequently but starting in around 2011 or so the finds dropped off...
The notes are fine. If you're comparing these notes to current-issue notes then you will notice a variety of differences. Examples include that...
These observations stood out to me as well. What tellers do when they get excess coin rolls is they just empty them out into bags and ship them...
That is all it is, really- a supposedly "free" country. Feel free to read the second half of this post that I made just last month on another...
