<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sonlarson, post: 1557949, member: 15488&quot;]I was working on my World coin collection today and came across a couple of coins I picked up in the past. I thought it would be interesting to see what other collectors found in thier collections. The first I actually got from a coinstar reject bin ( I work for a major grocery chain, which has a machine in the lobby, I get a lot of nice rejects) about 8 or 9 years ago. At the time I thought I had a real find, until I looked closer.&nbsp; The one on the bottom is real.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]210383.vB[/ATTACH] Sicily, Gela. Circa 480-470 BC. ARTetradrachm (17.02 gm). Charioteer driving biga&nbsp; [FONT=Courier New, monospace]right,Nike above / CELAS, forepart of man-headed bull right. Jenkins 124(O36/R75).[/FONT]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]210384.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>The copy(facimile) is a 1946 with a mintage of 104,000, which if real would be worth about $25 in the condition above. The lower coin(1947R, had a mintage of 12,000, and worth about $1100 in Unc.</p><p><br /></p><p>What have you found that jump started your heart, then let you down?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
