<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CoingirlNJ, post: 1273278, member: 32586&quot;]The tellers at my Chase bank that I&#039;ve become friendly with called me today with news that someone dropped off $250 in halves and they thought of me before sending them off to the farm in upstate New York.&nbsp; I was there in minutes and bought them all.&nbsp; No silvers but since my (2) half-dollar collections are skimpy at best this is filling in a TON of holes so i consider this a success.&nbsp; Also FINALLY picked up a 1972-S penny I&#039;ve been searching for several years, as well as some other miscellany.&nbsp; Now I just have to go through my jar of 1982 cents and find a 1982-D zinc lg date and sm date and that book is done like dinner.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>A few questions:</p><p><br /></p><p>1- Do you think there&#039;s any value in starting a THIRD collection with the halves I don&#039;t need and selling it off on Ebay as a starter collection for someone?&nbsp; Would obviously be looking for more than face value, think I&#039;d get it?&nbsp; For that matter, what about any other denominations?</p><p><br /></p><p>2- Any advice on what dimes I should be hoarding other than the obvious silver/barber/mercury?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Presently hoarding all nickels, 1982 and earlier pennies, 2009 pennies, bi-centennial quarters/halves/SBAs, and any of the US Territory and America the Beautiful quarters since they&#039;re so darn hard to find.</p><p><br /></p><p>3- Any advice on things to look out for/hoard as I go through all 500 of the halves tomorrow?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Your guidance and infinite wisdom on such matters is always appreciated but never monetarily reciprocated.&nbsp; ;-). Unless someone is on the Left Coast that needs Philadelphia coins, in which case we could help each other out.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks, all![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
