<p>[QUOTE="JCB1983, post: 1338619, member: 23885"]<font size="3">I would like to hear from our Mint-State 1950's-70's Coin Veterans. What was it like? In 1965 did everyone go crazy loading up on silver? What was it like to sit down and play a slot machine that paid out 90% Silver? Did everyone pretty much wear suits? What are some of your fond coin memories? Any great stories? I read quite a bit of Harold Robbins books, and enjoy traveling back in time. What are these stories about bags of morgan dollars? If you had a paper route, did people really pay with silver certificates? How has the coin world changed since then (besides the internet). What were some of your major scores on coinage? Any scandals? (I read somwhere that a lot of coins were counterfeited in the 1950's). Any sharing would be highly appreciated. I could go on and on with questions. Please share.</font></p><p><font size="3"><br /></font></p><p><font size="3"><br /></font></p><p><font size="3">[ATTACH]153803.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]153804.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]153805.vB[/ATTACH]</font></p><p><font size="3"></font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
