Right Nationalist. I found this on Wikipedia ‘Franco led the Nationalists to victory in the civil war and went on to become the longest-ruling dictator in European history.’

The coin grading agency, NGC offers melt value of gold, silver, platinum and palladium coins. Check under the tabs with “World”. This will help you get an estimation of what your coins are worth.

These coins a.k.a coin-like piece of medallic art are pretty indeed. It’s interesting to turn a worn-out old coin into one with modern graffiti. Now that the coins have been hammered or modified, technically it’s no longer a coin an investor would look for. Though, the creative designs make it a collectible for art lovers. Good luck!!!

Bid ended. Seems like you got a good amount for your coins. Guess, it’s because your coins were professionally graded. Do you have more of such antique coins?? If so, post the pictures here, would love to see them.

Woah!!! I’ve just discovered about the coins from you. Just wish you had posted pictures of them. That’s because my sister is a coin collector and I would look up for coins mentioned by you in her collection.

Oh Wow!!! Thanks for the details. Now that fakes are on the rise, this information should be of great help.

Woah! It looks like you have hit a jackpot on Spanish gold coin, which has historical significance attached to it. Why don’t you take this to a coin collector who will verify and tell you the details that you are looking for? Who knows the coin collector might even offer you a good price for it…. Good luck.

Oh great!!This one caught my eye, especially because I love possessing articles of historic value. Seriously, I’m curious to know more about these silver quarters and dimes that you have mentioned about. Are they in a good condition, is the design intact?

Hey!!! This is very interesting and new to me. Wish you could share your collection as images. Will wait for you to upload them.

Great find “GX”. I wonder how you managed identifying it. I stumbled upon an 1890 coin and I’ve fallen for it completely.

The coin is a Peace Silver Dollar and it is believed that the design of Lady Liberty on the obverse is designed by Anthony de Francisci using his wife Teresa as a model for the personified head of Liberty.

The coins look real interesting. I haven’t seen or heard much about it though.

A-ha! The only coins I’m attracted to are the ones that are made in gold and silver. I’m not particular about its design, origin or other intricacies. I’m concerned only about its intrinsic value and its value that will be assured when I decide to sell it.

Oh! you have spotted them perfectly. In case, you still want to re confirm I suggest you visit a coin dealer.

Are you talking about Lincoln Cent 1909? I am very keen to possess a 1904 $20 Liberty coin and I found this link on the rare US coin that would be of great help.

I am aware that most of these rolls are found in banks. Developing a good relationship with bank tellers and telling them what you actually want to accomplish will have them bring in customers to fetch an old collection of pennies.

All the good tips to find coins are taken up here. None the less, if you ever consider getting adventurous about collecting coins, get yourself a metal detector and hunt for coins on the beaches and parks. You would be amazed at your findings.

I dream of owning at least one coin from the 1700’s…. Where did you find this coin??

Thank you for raising this query. I’ve been racking my brains on it. And the closest answer I could gather on this is; Type A has 28 stripes at the edge and Type B has 29.

Coins are stored in special cases made for them or little envelopes made to hold them. However you decide to store them, remember to not clean them as they lose their value when cleaned.

Well, spotted the error, if it can be considered as one. But, I’m wondering if you need the authentication of these coins or do you need more information in terms of selling them to the right person who will evaluate the coins appropriately.
