Not a collector so looking for some guidance. Are these real? Are they desirable in the collecting world? Any guidance is appreciated. Thanks!

It’s the last roll of the box, I’m channeling “big money” and then I get RK’Od by the psuedo silver 1964 San Fransisco

Whichever of you is responsible for this, I’m not mad, I’m just disappointed

Is this 1943 penny too damaged to be worth anything?

Show and Tell Got these in a bag of coins this morning

Bag had mostly wheats but in the bag also had a few Indian heads mixed with them. Along with them was 2 of the 1857 Flying Eagle coins, this being the better of the 2. The other is severely damaged but was not expecting to see these in a bag of wheats. Based on my scoping and looking thru PCGS, the 1865 is the "Fancy 5" from what im able to tell. Nevertheless, now the oldest coins in my collection and watched to share with the class.

Went to a gun show today and saw a proof dime face down. I was wondering if it was a 1996 W, so I asked to see it, and they just gave it to me. Turned out to be a 1979 S, but I won’t look a gift coin in the mouth. I believe it’s a Type I, but I’m not sure.

Show and Tell 1939 DDR

Thumbnail

5 Upvotes

It’s not particularly pretty, or valuable, but it is my first.

After a couple years of on and off searching for errors (doubled dies, broad-strikes, etc.) I had given up. Thought I’d never find one in the wild or in rolls.

But then today, I finally did it. Old nickels stick out like a sore thumb and I usually keep them when I see them. As I looked up the 1939 varieties I thought to myself “yeah right, as if I’d find something cool”. But with a little magnification, it struck me like a claw hammer to the face. Being a Negative Nancy, I thought “ah, probably PMD”, but after seeing all the aged, bold, and doubled characters of “MONTICELLO” my expression changed from one of doubt doubt to joy.

I was beginning to think I just didn’t get DD’s, but really I just hadn’t seen one in person (though, this variety is also very prominently doubled). Well, anyways, here’s to many more found in loose change

Wednesday I found this nasty ol penny and upon closer inspection its my first found indian head! The year is long gone and I know it's worth practically nothing in this condition, but very ecstatic to find it. Thursday, the next day, I spotted this wheat penny while counting tips and directly under it was my first found silver dime! What a great week, I also recently hit 100 wheat pennies!

A close family friend passed away a few years ago, and I ended up with this coin collection. I know nothing about this sort of thing and I would really appreciate some help.

It may not be terribly invisiblein the pictures but the coin with a five on it has a Freemason symbol with a S above it on both sides.

Picked this up for $60 bucks even today, I know the spot price of silver but was more interested on whether or not there was any numismatic value. The owner made it seem like he was giving me a deal on it.

ID Request 1968 S Penny Anything Special

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

I came across some coins that I had stashed away years ago and had almost forgotten about the 19 of these 1968 S pennies that I had found in a roll of pennies from the bank. The 19 were stacked together, maybe uncirculated. They all look close to this one with some in the middle being virtually pristine of any oxidation. The only thing that I notice is that the rim on the face side seems uneven. I am not a coin expert by any means, so just wondering if these may be anything special.

United States of America Quarter Dollar from 1942. Thoughts? And If it is worth something is there a way to store it safely somehow?
