<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dimeguy, post: 1126302, member: 19855&quot;]Went to the parents&#039; home today. Mom gave me a couple of bags, saying she found these while cleaning out her closet. She saved the majority of coins I collected as a kid. Needless to say I had a good laugh looking though most of them. Hope you guys do too. Enjoy!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The hoard...had three bags total and this was bag 1. If you look closely there&#039;s even the ASE I would carry around that Dad bought me for Christmas one year!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i765.photobucket.com/albums/xx292/dimeguy_2010/thevault005.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Couple of comical coins:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>One very worn &quot;silver penny&quot; and an almost unreadable Buffaloe:</p><p><img src="http://i765.photobucket.com/albums/xx292/dimeguy_2010/thevault001.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Yep, that bicentenial quarter and junk Merc are so valuable they needed to be encapsulated in grossly oversized 2X2&#039;s with 6 staples!</p><p><img src="http://i765.photobucket.com/albums/xx292/dimeguy_2010/thevault002.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And, the uncommon Kennedy and my first &quot;silver&quot; dollar.</p><p><img src="http://i765.photobucket.com/albums/xx292/dimeguy_2010/thevault003.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I can&#039;t help but think that everyone thought I was nuts for holding on to Kennedy halves and quarters, dimes, and whatever else older than 1985 (because they were older than me, so they had to be worth something), but still it led to where I am now. Good laugh for a Sunday afternoon, nonetheless.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
