Did anyone read that article in the New York Times today? What did you think? It was really interesting

Hmmm, I'm not sure. To me it looks worn down, but I could be wrong.

PS I have lots of Malaysian coins and it seems like they make a lot of errors...

I found about 30 in a drawer today, and I noticed that many have different backs. Are these 'mint marks'? Sorry if it's a dumb question, I'm not very knowledgeable in this.

German 1908 and 1919. I would post a picture but it's 'too big to upload'

Wow!

The best I have found rarity wise is the 1911-D I found last summer. The oldest are the several 1909 and 1909 VDB I have found.

 

Oh my goodness! Seriously? Vdb?

This morning I was looking through the change I had dumped on the bathroom vanity last night, checking for solid copper cents. I looked at a chocolate brown coin, and was pleased to see it was a 1976.

 

*doubletake*

 

No, it was 1926. And it looks to be about VF-30, which makes it worth about a buck.

Wow!!!!!!!!!! Lucky!

Have lots of them from heavy patina to bright and shinny! Waiting on the world coin books to be delivered, they are last years but will work for my needs.

These are what I pulled out of the two cups from the 60's, the shinny ones are put away and I will have to find them.

 

I found one of those two. Is there anything special them in value?

This is similar to my other thread but this time list all of the denominations of oldest coins/bills that you have found in circulation.

 

Penny: 1937

Nickel: 1940

Dime: 1948

Quarter: 1957

Half dollar: 1976

Dollar coin: 1979

$1 bill: 2001

$2 bill: n/a

$5 bill: n/a

$10 bill: n/a

$20 bill: 1999

Difinitely a Post Mint thing. Not sure but almost looks like someone just scratched that there for some reason.

And your right about that 68. Same thing is found on many of the 72's and many other dates from back slightly prior to the change over in 82. They make nice looking coins for an Album but no big thing in prices.

Actually, the picture is very bad. In real life, it has definitley been printed on there. It definitley is Post-Mint though.

@Scottishmoney I found a 1948 dime the other day. What have you found?

 

 

Does anyone know about the 9 under date?

Wow, intereseting! Thanks!

Ok I will try without the flash

First of all, I have found that 1968, and only 1968 pennies seem to have thicker designs, as if they were doubled-die, and this isn't just one or two 68s I am looking at. Anyone have an explanation?

 

Second, there is a '9' under the date of this penny that seems to have been printed on. Does anyone know about this? Sorry for the bad picture quality.

Try comparing it to another dime. What do you think?

I have found tons of Canadian coins, along with a Panama coin, and mabye some Euros and Pounds but I have so many already that I wouldn't know.

this 1991 Malaysia 10 ringgit while overseas

 

 

Nice! I have lots of Malaysian money too as I have spent a lot of time there. I had a dream that I found a 10 dollar bill from 1620

Wow! Cool! My friend found a 1938 and I found a 1939

Found in Circulation: I have found a 1937, 1939, 1942, 1944 x4, 1945, 1948, 1949, 1950 x2, 1952 , 1953 x3, 1954, 1955, 1956 x4, 1957
Have: 1943 P, D and S
What about you?

Wow, I have found nothing old compared to you guys!

From circulation? 1999 and I didn't keep it becase it was a 20

But the oldest that I HAVE is a German 1909.

Whenever I try, it says 'Failed to upload picture'. Anyone know what to do?

 

Also, when I try to upload a picture on the forums it always says that the file is too big, even when it's tiny!

I would upload a pictue but it says 'This file is too big to upload'. (Anyone have any tips?)

Denominations:

1908: 100

1919: 50

I have some German banknotes from 1908 and 1919. Does anyone know what these are worth?

@CoinStar Miner- WOW! Can you post a picture?
