<p>[QUOTE="Hiddendragon, post: 24827887, member: 25270"]I took the day off on Tuesday to visit the coin shop and as usual came back with a big pile of coins. It'll take me awhile to go through them all and photograph/scan them, but I wanted to share a few here. First off they had a lot of Canadian silver dollars in really nice shape. It's hard to believe but there doesn't seem to be much of a premium attached to these in high quality. I picked out three and could have had a lot more if I had the money to spend. I'm assuming I payed close to melt on them, as the clerk usually only tells me the price of something when it's higher than I might expect. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1589778[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1589779[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1589780[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I also have here a 1912 Peru dinero and a 1974 Peru sol de oro, which is a common coin but I love the design, which is raised above the surface more than most coins. I also have a 1944 D Philippines 20 centavos that looks like it was made yesterday. I'm not sure if the photos will do it justice.
