[QUOTE="gbroke, post: 1232237, member: 22585"]A buddy of mine bought a building from the bank. The last tenant was a Stamp and Coin dealer. Not sure how long ago the shop moved out exactly, but it was not very recent. Anyway, my buddy was in there cleaning everything out, getting ready for renovations. He found 2 nice books full of stamps, and these coins. He gave me the coins since he knew I collected them. The stamps were truly amazing. After looking on completed sales on ebay, there is at least 5k in stamps. I didn't have either one of these types of coins in my collection. Although not valuable, still pretty neat. Sorry about images, bad camera phone. (1) 194x wheat cent. Definitely a grease filled die on the fourth number. He had it labeled as an error, we all know it's not. (1) Memorial Lincoln - no date - off-center strike (very red and very nice) (1) 1951 "Big" Canada nickel. I have never heard of this until now. It is larger then a U.S. half dollar.
