Luke1988 explains this well for silver coins; indeed, virtually any circulated Franklin half would be considered &quot;junk&quot; today.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>For world coins -- the kind of coin commonly found in dealers&#039; &quot;Junk&quot; boxes at prices like 4 for a dollar, or the kind of coins that you can buy by the pound. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Importantly -- junk coins *are* collectible, although of very low value. They&#039;re great for YNs and collectors on a budget. One man&#039;s junk is another man&#039;s treasure.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Most damaged coins don&#039;t even rise to the level of junk, IMO.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
