I'm sorting through circulation coins and penny roles, etc.
I'll come across some older G/F coins that have a .30ct, .90ct, up to a few dollars or so value in the red book. Mostly the prices are for AU/MS grades, but I'm finding the lesser grades. Are...

Edit to add that everyone put back into circulation saves the government or....
Illegal to melt and the 2x2 costs more than the coin is worth.

Actually, I also stop here in Canada ....
In pocket change, a 1940 penny.
Found it coin roll hunting.

But while in Canada I think that the oldest coin I have found is a 1956 nickel.
In circulation in the US.

With the exception of the 2009 coins I have completed my circulation set by finding a 1950d nickel in the wild.
Now I can start chasing shadows and update the coins that I have. They are currently in a Whiteman album but I think that I'll get a Dansco...

A batch of 20p coins accidentally issued with no date on them could be
worth £50 each, say coin collectors.
Tens of thousands of the coins have been produced in error...

The title doesn't completely describe what I mean.
Recently I bought a new Lincoln Dansco, 1909 to current. I bought it to put the coins from my Grandfathers original Dansco (circa 1937)into. Now this was a complete set of regular issues (meaning no 1...

Great....
I do roll hunting when I have $20 to spare, but I think that probably also counts as circulation collecting, since it's not boughten strictly as a collector item.

According to Coin World Online, the San Francisco Mint is striking 1.4 million circulation quality quarters of each of the five ATB designs with the S mint mark. They will only be sold in rolls and bags at a premium later in the year.
What do you all ...

I've been told! Like the 1979 Mint Set with no S-Mint Suzy! This seems similar to other circulation-quality coins the same for the ASEs.....
Kind of screws up what should be in the mint sets, methinks .
Value circulation coins.

I am aware of only two countries where you can still pick silver out of circulation - USA and Canada.
Are there any others that you can think of where you can "regularly" find silver in change? Obviously, a silver coin - say, from Russia - might fit into...

I was reading a couple of threads in the Canadian forum that mentioned that the Canadian government might be hoarding the copper coins in circulation there and melting them for profit to offset the losses that they are sustaining from the metal costs ...

IF they ....
If they take a bunch of coppers out of circulation, they'll just have to mint more zincs to make up minting their cents.
Is to keep the government from jumping at that opportunity? What we see in circulation is nothing to that.

Obama, first black person on a coin in circulation?
So I was thinking this morning about the possibility of Obama being on the presidential coin series. I was trying to think if there has been another black person on a US coin or bill for general circulation...

If you get any mint and proof 1971 coins they are probably from me ..
