[QUOTE="Blasty, post: 8188106, member: 38375"]^ Reminds me of another one. I sold some of my childhood coins along with other things when I needed some extra cash to buy a Camaro, a '91 RS Convertible. It made sense at the time, I needed a car. I no longer have that car but I would have still had the coins. Nothing really special, but they were valuable to me. • 1879 CC over CC Morgan, low grade but sold for more than twice what I paid for it. • Austrian Ducat, 1915 restrike. Not a special coin, but you don't sell gold!!! • A real California 25c piece. 187-someting, holed, but a neat piece regardless. I miss that one. On the plus side, I sold a lot more coins to my dad and he held onto them. Silver dollars, halves, interesting notes that I pulled from circulation as a kid (back when a web note would show up once in a while), etc. He insisted recently that I take them all back. I couldn't just take them in good conscience, so I bought them back. Don't sell coins for a car. Cars don't last![/QUOTE]
