[QUOTE="Atreides, post: 1470210, member: 36287"]Hey guys. I've had these blanks for years, during the 90s I worked at a supermarket in the cash office so I came across all sorts of neat stuff. I've taken these to a few people who tell me they're all genuine, but I'm wondering what I should do with them. Should I send them in to be graded/certified as legit? Are blanks generally worth a lot? Sorry if any pics are blurry, I only really have my cell phone to take pics: Quarter: [IMG]http://i49.tinypic.com/2j75vb.jpg[/IMG] This one has an unreeded cupro-nickel edge and is the same weight/diameter as a quarter. I'm not sure what the gash is (it's on both sides in the same location). I found this one before the 50 state program, if that matters. Dime: [IMG]http://i50.tinypic.com/6z0h34.jpg[/IMG] The dime also has an unreeded cupro-nickel edge, but this planchet has a raised rim. Here's a picture of both coins from the edge on: [IMG]http://i50.tinypic.com/ulq4n.jpg[/IMG] Pennies: [IMG]http://i46.tinypic.com/2drtpl.jpg[/IMG] The first penny has a raised rim [IMG]http://i50.tinypic.com/2v9rxwh.jpg[/IMG] The pic is a bit blurry, but this second one is slightly concave. My boss called this one a Type 2. Anyway, thanks in advance for the advice[/QUOTE]
