Scottishmoney Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Right now I have a very small 1878 Morgan Dollar, must have been one of those early 1980's things that was sold for a dollar, and a 1969 ANA Medal with the Liberty Cap Design that should have been on the Dollar coin in 1979. They actually have been around here for awhile, for some reason they stay here. The only note is a 10 Pesos from the Dominican Republic, someone in Florida keeps sending Latin American currency as Christmas cards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gxseries Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Plenty of world coins that I should have filed and organized them... I just didn't get the time to do them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlavicScott Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 have a little tupperware bowl full of 2x2 coins that I have received over the last year or so that haven't been scanned, cataloged, and placed into the proper folders, YET! A stack of about 10-12 20 pocket pages full of French coins that I need to get shipped out to Ohio, one of these days. A stack of Hungarian notes that I need to scan for BanknoteBank, one of these days, and a tub full of extras I probably ought to try and list here or on AuctionMonster, just to get them gone and get a little cash-flow, one of these days.

joanjet Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 No coins at all. I am a very tidy and organized girl. I do keep a "coin album" on my desk that has plastic sleeves that hold 6 2x2's per page and that is where I keep my loose coins. I have not labeled each individual 2x2 yet with my labeler, but that is all I have to do. I just keep the little album with me all the time and show off what is in it to friends whether they are interested or not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

syzygy Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Great question! I don't keep coins on my desk, but I have two places where coins linger. First, is one of those little boxes that people give you to put cuff links (don't own any) and stuff (like coins) in - that's on my dresser. The second is a glass coaster or ashtray or dish or something in the kitchen next to a couple of coffee cans that serve as change collectors. Now to go look - the first one has.... 6 Oregon SQs all P mint - AU/BU - when these first come out and I notice, I save a couple because they're new. Then I save a couple because I keep thinking that I will trade with someone who gets a lot of D-mints (I don't) but doesn't find the P-mints like I do. 3 Kansas SQs, P-mint - same deal as above 1 WV SQ P-mint - same deal as above 2001-D NC SQ - because I need a couple early SQ D-mints and I can't remember which ones so when I see a D-mint it lingers (I don't need that one BTW). 1 2005-P Ocean in View Jefferson because I don't see them too often. 2 2004-P Keelboat Jefferson, same deal as above 1956-P Jefferson, because coins that are 50 years old should not be circulating around me. 1962-D Jefferson, because at first glance the D looked funny - viewing through a loop, it is not a RPM - just a bit bashed 1970-S Jefferson, because I don't see S mint marks in circulation very often. Ok now for the one in the kitchen... 2 2005-P Buffalo Jefferson because an AU looks better than the buisness BUs that I have a few rolls of. A nameco game token - no idea where that came from 1940 Jefferson - 66 years old! 1959-D Jefferson 1947-S Jefferson - a great circulation find 1978 Jefferson - no idea why that's there 1962-D Jefferson 1973 Jefferson 3 2005 Zincolns - probably from when 2005s first started showing up 1966 Lincoln with a ton of luster but scruffy 1990 Zincoln with some bubbling on the top layer such that there is a dot where a MM might be - caught my eye 1970-S - mint mark thing again 1945, 1949, 1944-D, 1948, 1957, 1958 Lincoln - I love getting wheaties in change 1960-D Lincoln, small date 1951, 1987 Swiss 20 (francs?) - someone must have given these to me 1971 1/2 Fr Swiss 1975 Netherlands 10 cent - very small - don't know where I got it 2003 Euro 5 Cent (theater mask - don't know where that is from) I suppose I should spend some of these and do something with the others....but I will let them linger for a while - nothing is overflowing.

whohah Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Some non-US minors [German 1, 5 and 10 pfg.'s, etc.] and a really nice old US cent-sized token. On one side it says "Anhauser-Busch Brewing Ass'n" the other side has the well-known eagle-in-A logo for A-B and the date...1880. When I get a chance, I'll scan it and upload it. [i know, I know, another one of my promises to "scan-and-upload..."] I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 10 x duplicates, walking liberty $1/2's that i've been toying with selling for a couple of years now. a pile of 2005 UK coins that will end up as gifts somewhere down the line a couple of 1999 £2 (ditto) a pile of UK 1/4's i've been sorting through (ditto) a pile of silver 3d's i've been sorting through (ditto) 11 x ancient Ae's that are identifiable...just I haven't found the right reference in the past 10 years. Either that or I blinked and missed it. I'll check them again in another 10 years or so. a dozen or so duplicate silver jetons that i'll probably sell when I can get motivated to do so. some gold coins i'm definitely intending selling (not bullion) when I can get myself motivated to do so. one of those tubes full of wheat cents various UK commem. £2 and 50p coins that I will probably just end up spending. various duplicate french coins that I must dispose of Ian `well and truly cluttered' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elverno Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Hehe, I had to clean off my desk recently for another project so only an 1806 1/2 Batzen from the Canton of Vaud. Decent condition but nothing that Swiss collectors are going to drool over. Usually I have over 200 coins or medals on my desk at a time but they went into a storage box and got put in the safe. I'm so lazy I haven't gotten the box back out now that I got my desk back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
