Scottishmoney Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Glad to see you have managed to get the titles in your relationship right! After 11 years I have finally in this last year realised I am nothing to her Majesty. It is just easier that way, she is right, even if... well forget about it.

thedeadpoint Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 I saw a quarter on my desk with a deeper relief than normal around the "In God We Trust" on the obverse. I looked at it and it was a 1964! I haven't found a silver coin, let alone a quarter, in quite a while! Woo! A 1970 was nearby too. Must've gotten them through some toll booth... good thing I don't have an EZ Pass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreasureGirl Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 Found some super nice cents in 10 rolls I bought today - among them BU 1972-D, 1973-D, and 1976-D, and a pretty purply-toned 1981. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreasureGirl Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 Someone jammed one of the games at work with what they thought was a token but what really was a 50 Euro Cent from Germany. Mine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigCanadianM Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 1968 50% silver quarter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedeadpoint Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 What I like most about jeff. nickels: You can tell from a mile away if they're of numismatic interest. Usually you can tell a war nickel or a pre-1964 nickel from the high relief, the wear pattern, or the toning. I saw one sitting in my dad's pocket change. I knew it was special, picked it up and was a little sad it was a 1969. But happy to see the "S" under the date! I always treasure an san fran. minted coin I find in circulation. Cool beans.

collectin_coins Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 1968 50% silver quarter! You sure that wasnt a half dollar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
collectin_coins Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 I am part of the cent project so I just sorted thru 5000 cents. Found 1919, 1930D, 16 other 40's-50's wheaties (wow, they are getting harder to find) 17 S mint cents and a couple of BU 60's. 6 canadian cents and one cool but mystifying token on which the words translate into memory of marriage with the basillica de guadalupe on it. Looked it up real quick and apparently the groom gives the bride these Arras tokens http://www.omnicoin.com/coins/933952.jpg Upgraded my "circulation" cent collection, added to exonumia collection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottishmoney Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 You sure that wasnt a half dollar He is in Canada, the 1968 25¢ coins were .500 fine, and then nickel later in the year. Whilst I still get Georgian coins, ie cents in change from time to time, I have never gotten silver Canadians. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all of the 1968s were .500 silver, but it is pretty rare to find one that is anymore. Nice find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreasureGirl Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 Ganked a 2007 Canadian dime out of the till, if only because it's worth more than a US dime nowadays! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
