Not my find, but my wife's - 1992 10p from Great Britain, a large quarter sized coin that apparently was masquerading as a quarter. This is the second British coin we have gotten in the past few months, the other was a 20p masquerading as a nickel.

...looking for a pic of squadoosh cuz thats what I have found lately

Your signature says you got married on Saturday. Congrats! I hope it all went well and you are in a happy, healthy relationship that'll last your lifetimes!

PS. I'm also glad to see CoinPeople is worth a few moments of your time on such a big big day.

Received a 2007 €2 from Slovenia in my change yesterday.

Thanks!

And, you better believe it! Nothing calms the nerves like coins (and people) do.

1994 -- Appears to be a "struck-through" -- found in a jar of cents.

Strong die-break thru date -- from same jar of cents.

Wow, tommyd, you have a great eye!

Thanks TG & congrats on the nuptuals!

Received this in change at Cloverdale Paints when purchasing paint rollers. A few scratches but lots of lustre, the reverse is much nicer than obverse.

Silver lining in the change is never a bad thing.

At last I have found my first 2007 coin in circulation, the 5p. Although not an particulary interesting coin I'm glad to finally get a 2007 release seeing as this coin (along with the 1,2,10,20 & 50p) coins are to have new designs next year.

Image to follow, although i'm sure everyone knows what the current 5p coin looks like

This was a shocker, then again, it's also corroded and mushy looking, but found in a register non-the-less.
1911 Liberty Head "V" Nickel.

Wow, nice find!!!

So jealous

Someone gave me a 1948-S nickel at the register today. I told them they made me very happy!

Yesterday I got back a 2 Eurocommemorative "Roman Threaty"

You guys have to hate me after this week, lol. I found a rim clipped 1909 wheatback, no VDB, no S, but a 09, and clipped, and in change! This is interesting though, the clip looks like a knock on the front, but on the reverse the rim is complete, but missing part of the INSIDE rim, very strange.

wow very nice!!! very lucky

Odd!
Nice find

It has been mighty lean with regard to circulation finds for me. At the Post Office, I put in my $20.20 for 20 'forever' stamps and got back: 1 79 SBA, 1 Sac, 2 GWs and 8 of these.



I also received 2 GWs from a Good Humor ice cream machine that only accepted nickel, dime and quarter coins. I have yet to get a PrezBuck in common change, but I have not had much resistance spending them.

Can't believe I forgot to post here a few weeks ago!

All at once, while an elementary school was at the skating rink, I got a 1955 quarter, 2003-D Sac (never saw anything past 2001 until then), and a 1978 Deutschmark.

I can't either!
I got a colorized 2006 commemorative with Santa and his reindeer in (My dads ) change! It wasn't meant for circulation, so I don't know how a quarter someone payed $20 for got into circulation, but I'm a happy camper

Image borrowed off eBay

Isn't that a silver one too?

!!!!!
*Checks*
I suppose they could be, but in the book its "nickel plated steel", and it dosen't look much like silver. Oh well, its off to the coin shop to day to sell, to fund some older, nicer coins!

I got a 1893 Indian head back in change from the Grocery store. I saw 3 morgan dollars in a Gas Station register. I said can I buy those. THe nice girl said sure. 1880,1890,1900. $36 in silver for $3. They were all Fine to Very Fine.

Now everywhere I go people think Im trying to rob them. I lean over the counter and look in the register. I dont care.

I'm still waiting for someone to beat (age wise) my 1860's civil war token I found with some cents a few months back!

Wow guys, you get some amazing finds!

only find i get here in bahrain is a 1992 coin >_> an thats still in use x< xD

Concurrance.

7-7-07 was a heck of a lucky day.

I finally found my first web-press note after searching through more than $30,000 in $1 notes over the last 2 months.

It's not a nice one, but it IS one! Whoo hoo! The odd part is I knew there was something odd about it even before I saw it was a web-press. The color is much thinner, and the note has no embossing at all, it looked out of place, and it certainly was!

congrats, V!

i didnt know wat webnotes r so i checked out google got this site http://quadrigaancients.com/web/ anyway i had only 2 us notes an i checked em 1 turned out to be a webnote tytyty if it wasnt for u i wouldnt have know *bow* o 'king ^_^

Awesome Roaddevil, what year is your note? 1988-A appears to be the rarest in nice shape because hardly anyone knew about them back then, so most got into circulation. I'm glad I had a hand in helping your collection! Lol!

1993 r there any after 1995 cause the site says "Web notes were produced in the following series: 1988A, 1993, & 1995."

1995 was the last year they produced them before they sold the multi million dollar web presses for scrap metal. Got to love the way the US handles failure, eh? Lol.

xD

Webpress?

Great finds guys! I have 53 crisp unc notes from those series, I should really check to see if any of them are web notes!

If you do, and have any extras, you know where to off them.

Well, if I have any, they would likely be in consecutive groups since that's all I have of those years.

Oh yeah, I thought about doing that, but then again I really only hoard non-US notes, so I just get one nice example of each. Btw, I lost 4 more auctions for a Au+ green eagle this week, woot. I am looking at several online now, but I am probably going to lose those too, lol.

Well, patience will eventually be rewarded.

Got a F 1940S cent in change from Pat Catan's Craft store. The lady would not look through the drawer to see if there were any more I could get though

Got a 1952-D Lincoln in change at Tim Horton's the other day.

Probably because she was upset that she hadn't noticed that she had given you one.
