<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gallienus, post: 12693877, member: 42034&quot;]She&#039;s been telling that story for a long time.&nbsp; I&#039;m going to guess that she got that thing in the 1950&#039;s or 1960&#039;s.&nbsp; Running a retail store in Camden, NJ, they were saving silver coins way before I started (1973) and were able to get things directly from circulation.&nbsp; She certainly had the coin before then. She passed away at 102.5, two years ago.</p><p><br /></p><p>My grandmother on my other side, my maternal, lived near Philly.&nbsp; She told of collecting her rents from tenants in $20 gold pieces.&nbsp; Unfortunately, she never saved any.</p><p><br /></p><p>I believe coin prices are at a peak right now.&nbsp; If the market goes down I hope to look for a few nice but affordable pieces. I always wanted a 1906-S due to the famous earthquake.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
