Message:: [QUOTE="mac10man, post: 193689, member: 7488"]My best friends wife called me today and asked if I had any coin price books. She said she'd found 8 drawers full and jars, and bags of old coins from the late 1800's to the '70s. American, Russian, Japanese, Spanish etc. I told her jokingly, "I'll give ya a hundred bucks for some coins" . She asked what I wanted, and I told her wheat cents. She said, "I'll just give you those!".  She said that there's a bunch of old coins in cardboard 2x2's, "Money with red writing on it" and all this stuff is just in her grandma's way. Her grandma said just to get rid of them, and if I wanted to buy them, that would be fine. I told her that I wouldn't sell them and save them for my kids just as she did. She said I could look and see what I want for $100, then we'll settle on the rest. No one in her family knows about coins, or even cares about them. All she would like to see is maybe double face value. I truly have found an un-searched hoard, and it's all for me!!![/QUOTE]
