[QUOTE="lucyray, post: 1073207, member: 24565"]What should I do (if anything) to these coins? No photo, as that might not help -- Just found them in a little trinket box, tucked away for 'later' I guess.. As I said before, I continue to find things.. 5 coins: each in it's own tiny plastic bag (say 1 1/2 x 2 1/2), stacked one atop the other for a total of 5 in the stack; penny, nickel, dime, quarter, fifty-cent piece; all five then stapled with one staple to make the stack. All are dated 1940. Would you/should I take them out of these little plastic bags and do something with them? None of the bags are sealed, they are just stapled as I explained. You'll obviously ask me the condition of the coins. 'Dunno.. none look like mirrors to me, so not proofs, right? But they all look "lovely" to me. The nickel seems to be slightly bluish around the rim, in certain lights. I could describe each, but really it doesn't matter. Reading this board long enough now to know there is something I SHOULD do with/to these coins. Thank you in advance. Lucy[/QUOTE]
