<p>[QUOTE="Jhonn, post: 130248, member: 5418"]Yesterday around noon I went in to start my 19th century type set by purchasing a Flying Eagle cent and two Indian cents (one cu-ni, one bronze). I also put together a mini starter coin collection for a friend's nephew (Indian, BU wheat cent, Buffalo, WHL dime, Standing quarter and Walking half). It was raining really hard, and I was running late for something, so I quickly put all nine coins (or so I thought) into two paper envelopes. I put these under my jacket and made a mad dash for my car (which was only parked some 20-30 feet away). Once I got in the car, I put the envelopes in the back pocket of the passenger seat. </p><p><br /></p><p>Around 7 p.m. I went to retrieve my coins, and found five of the six starter coins in one envelope, and the nine cardboard 2x2's I had bought as well in the other.
