[QUOTE="Stephen2, post: 213937, member: 8480"]Well being impatient as i am, the kids and i went to two local shops. The first offered world coins for as little as 10 cents. (Half off regular price.) Nice guy but many of the coins were canadian and not very old. They were already wrapped in the 2x2 and labeled. We went to a second shop and were offered 1 pound for $8. I bought 1 pound and 100 of the 2x2 for 3.50. From what i have seen online the pound seems to be reasonably priced. The coins for the most part are very nice to look at. The kids think they are really neat- and this is what we wanted to accomplish. They counted - there were 89 coins. I also enquired about the dateless nickels and was given a price of $9.00 per 40. Maybe we will get these in the future. My wife worked at a bank up until recently and said they didnt carry much coin at the bank. Thanks for suggestions and help.[/QUOTE]
