I got some expected coins in today! My set of French Euro FINALLY arrived. And I also got a 1941-D Merc. Dime, and a 1956-P GEM UNC Roosevelt Dime. The Dimes were mailed Monday of last week, and the Euro were mailed on Wednesday of last week. I'm starting to get angry with the post office, because everything is taking soo long.
Hi, Joe.. did you win these off eBay? Were either of the dimes slabbed? I bought a roll of '56-D dimes the other day in an original bank roll... I opened the roll and they all look Gem BU (except for the end coins, of course). What's a good way to get rid of those ugly end coins? Perhaps, I'll leave them as a tip and see if the waiter or waitress notices that it's silver. I've thought about buying some Euros, perhaps either German or Greek. Those are really interesting... how about a pic of your French Euro's? ... and the Merc and Roosevelt while you're at it?
Slabbed? haha, I dunno what that is But I ordered the Euro off of Ebay, and the Dimes, a friend sent me. And congrats on those silver dimes you got! And, I'm sorry, buy my damn scanner is being dumb, so I cant get you a pic. I have 2 scanners and 2 computers, and niether of the scanners will work on either of the computers.
A slab is a case where the coin was graded by a Co.--most of the time PCGS NGC IGC PCI and ANACS and many others...they grade the coin and place it in a case to keep it from harm...search on line and you will learn fast.. Speedy
Good to find another Euro collector here! It is very addictive and the first thing you know...BAM...searching for silver Euro commemoratives!!!
