<p>[QUOTE="Coinlover, post: 155902, member: 6032"]yesturday was the best coin finding day i ever had. first, i found a 1956 jefferson nickel in change from my mom. it is in pretty good shape. second, me and my mom went to the twin city days my town has every year. they have lots of vendors up there. i was looking around different vending tents and i saw a man selling mint sets. i was looking at them and i saw a 1964 mint set for $10! i bought it up quick because it was the last one there. it has a silver half dollar, silver quarter, silver dime, nickel, and penny. they all look the way they did when they came out of the mint. even the envlope and letter in it is in brand new shape. after we left there, we had to get some food at the grocery store. i saw a penny on the ground and picked it up and it was a 1949D wheat penny. so in all i got a 1956 nickel, 1949D wheat penny, and a 1964 mint set in just one day without going to a flea market. i dont know the odds in someone getting a wheat penny in change and dropping it in a parking lot and a coin collector coming and picking it up, do you? have any of you guys found old coins everywhere you go and your not even looking for any? that is the first time i have. you never find pre 1960 nickels in change any more. or wheat pennies for that fact. and where else are you going to find a 1964 last year silver mint set for $10? that was the first time for me and i hope it happens at least once in every coin collectors life.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
