  1. If it has a green seal, it is most likely a worn series 1988 (small size $1 FRNs weren't issued until the 1960s). 

     

    Yesterday I got a 1940 nickel and a 1959-D cent at lunch.

     

     

    Yeah I went to my dealer today, and remembered it was in my wallet, he said it looks like someone restamped a 3 where a 8 once was. He also said the only made series 1935 and didnt make anything else until series 1957...both silver certificates. Interesting though...it'll be spent shortly, maybe someone here will find it lol.

  2. I finally found a nice one at a nice price.  I wanted one with more color, but this one will do. :ninja:

    Is that ms-66 or better? It looks absolutely gorgeous. Nice hauls guys.

     

    I got 4 nice foreign coins from Tiffibunny, will post pics shortly!

     

    My dad gave me an old box of coins for my B-day. An 1831 Bust half AU w/2 letters cut into obv. a handful of colonial-era coins (all rough except a 1654 farthing) he found while looking for Native American Artifacts in my area, a few old Japanese peso bills, and 10 buffalo nickels, 2 indian head cents, a flying eagle cent, and an 1818 large cent, all ground recovery coins. I don't him often, but when I do he always seems to give me stuff lol. My dads a nice guy, too bad we don't get to hangout more, meh.

     

    Will also post pics soon.

  3. I didn't really look for coppers since I am mainly into silver.  I know he has some older 8-reales going back to the 1700s, but those are not unc and not cheap!  They may be good prices for what they are, but they were between $200 and $800 which was more than I wanted to spend on a Mexican coin right now.  If there is something you are really looking for, let me know and I'll take a look.  This dealer is based in Kalamazoo I believe and tends to come to all the montly local shows.

     

    Ooof, yeah I don't think I wanna spend 200-800 on them lol. I was looking for moderately priced liberty capped silver, around 20-30 dollars and old mexican coppers like the one below, hand hammered copper is nifty! :ninja:

  4. Well, the same dealer is going to be at another local show in 3 weeks, so if you want, send a list of the dates you need and the prices you'd pay and I'd be happy to pick some up for you.  As I recall, they had a lot of nice unc. ones from the 1930s and 1940s for prices ranging from $5 to $9 (and when they tally it up they usually take a little off too!).  Just let me know.

     

    Did that guy happen to have any old mexican coppers from the 1830's-1840's? Or any of the old mexican style silvers? (liberty capped obverse) It's hard to find that kinda stuff around here at a reasonable price anymore.

  5. I've been blessed by the silver gods I think lol! :ninja:

     

    Last night at work (grocery store) I was getting quarter rolls for the registers and I noticed a silver quarter in the one. (These are the plastic "coin condoms" not the paper wrappers) Anyway all said and done in about 12 rolls I got 5.25 face value 43-64 silver quarters, 4 buffalo nickels, 4 war jeffys, and 10 40's-64 jeffys! I would say that is pretty good for one night wouldn't you?! :lol::cry:;)

  6. Very nice. I also checked out your Omnicoin stuff. You have quite a nice collection there.

     

    Thank you :lol:

    I've been collecting since I was 9, seeing as I'm nearly 23....I had a little while to accumulate some stuff :ninja:
