"Counterstamps." Is that the term for them? I've been calling them "chopmarks." As many as 20% of my $100s, and a lot of $50s too, have little...
Try 26¢ Actually, at the time of the half-cent's discontinuation, the 1¢ piece was worth approximately 26¢ in 2012 terms--a much more dramatic...
Where's George If you still have it (or even if you don't), try entering it into www.wheresgeorge.com. I know of a few people who use...
Right, then in my limited experience, nothing more than random crispy 1976s. I just spend them without reaction, most of the time. :)
Why [i]not[/] spend $2s?
Long before coming to CT. Please spend them after entering.
Half info and experience I call halves, dollar coins, and $2s spent together as the "trifecta." :) Recently, I found a bag several hundred Ike...
Zeros All money should end in zeros after the first digit. It's just easier to count and collect. Our 25¢ coin is (mostly) an aberration...

Most of these types of "reality" shows are actually reenactments of events that happened on their jobs, with extreme dramatic license (fiction)....
Three more responses Coin dealers generally buy them for 5¢ over face and sell for 10¢ over, for your run-of-the-mill Ikes. I guess it's a...
Bullhockey Ridiculous. Even if you're a fan of US Presidents (which were never supposed to be on cash in the first place), or even Grover...
Three responses I don't think there's anything even close to a Mint State Ike in the bag. They're well circulated. Some are even hard to tell...
Does anyone here seek out Eisenhower dollars for circulation in the United States? Besides being novel to many, they're fun to see people's...
Several questions for our older forum members regarding circulation (USA) To the seniors ("seniors" used loosely, since some questions require...
The Sentry 1100 can be opened with a fingernail. I bought two back in the 1990s, and another recently, and took them all back because of the...
