<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lkeigwin, post: 1313341, member: 30400&quot;]I was at Laguna Seca raceway this weekend, running a motorcycle event, when one of the older riders handed me a baggy of coins and said, &quot;I hear you like coins. These have always been in our family and represent birth dates and special occasions. I&#039;m the last of my family, no wife, siblings or children. And these coins really mean nothing to me.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>I love surprises like this.</p><p><br /></p><p>A dozen or more Morgan and Peace dollars, all well circulated and only worth melt. An XF Liberty nickel, VG Barber dime, and a modern Canadian nickel and &#039;72 Ike (huh?). But a few caught my eye (below).</p><p><br /></p><p>To bad about the deep scratches on the double eagle. But the CBH&#039;s are fun. An 1831 O.114 and 1832 O.110, both VF-ish.</p><p><br /></p><p>I sent the fella home with ten times more than he expected, along with a big grin. And I had fun with the dreck. Tomorrow they go to the B&amp;M, except maybe the DE &amp; CBH&#039;s.</p><p>Lance.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg37/lkeigwin/misc%20coins/e2ddd21d.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg37/lkeigwin/misc%20coins/9322a6f0.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg37/lkeigwin/misc%20coins/bfae5737.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg37/lkeigwin/misc%20coins/d0e55b84.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg37/lkeigwin/misc%20coins/31c4f76a.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg37/lkeigwin/misc%20coins/2e434a27.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
