[QUOTE="Drusus, post: 185899, member: 6370"]I went through a huge amount of quarters, dimes and nickels recently to take to the bank (years worth of change) and found 2 or 3 old silver quarters, a hand full of old dimes and nickels...they are still out there :) Nice find and I agree that coins are for touching and handling. I even like the look of them more once they have been handled and have dulled. If I get a coin right off the mint new, I will preserve the luster but all others are fair game for touching :) I got a batch of these Nova Roma Brass coins right off the mint, they looked like this...I put them away all but one and that one I carry around in my pocket almost all the time...I like the look of it NOW far more than when it was mint...dont know why :) I use it to flip when a coin needs flipping...I use it to hold and fiddle with in meetings, etc...
