<p>[QUOTE="Hiddendragon, post: 1003377, member: 25270"]Two things have frustrated me recently: 1. Early this year my parents were visiting my grandmother and they saw a bottle on the dresser labeled "Indian Head Cents." So my mom asked my grandmother who they belonged to and she said it belonged to my step-grandfather, who had passed away. She didn't want them so she said I could have them. So I was really excited, and when I got them I found they had all been cleaned with some kind of chemical that is still on them and has a very strong smell and leaves your hands smelling like it for hours after you touch them, and also there were no really good dates. Almost all were from the 1900s. </p><p> </p><p>The second is just the fact that I started seriously buying coins at the wrong time in my opinion. I am trying to complete basic sets of all types of coins. Now since silver is so high, I'm looking at paying $4-$5 for common Washington quarters, whereas a few years ago I could have paid a lot less. But I don't know for sure if silver will go back down, so if I don't buy now, it might keep going up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
