    No, I do have some of the new Buff nickels!

    Look for silver quarters! When you look at the milled edge, they are one color and, I think, older than 1963. The old dimes are silver too.

    I have been looking for a mercury dime!

    Pennies are pretty standard, you find all kinds of old ones there.

    There are steel pennies from the war years, rationing and all that-I have seen one, but it wasn't mine.

    I have two of them. One had been made into a necklace charm, so it's
    not valuable anymore.

    Gee, I have several "jars" of money that I never bother. I even have Mama"s old coin purse full of coins that I just take out and look at now and then. Maybe I need to look at the coins closer...

    I just found two more pennies,

    1956 and a 1945!

    Keep your eyes peeled.....there are a few coins out there that are worth more than face value.

    I collect old coins, and my grandpa finished my state quarter collection for me. My oldest is a penny from the fifties and a dollar bill from before the started writing "In god we trust" on them.

    The New Presidential Dollar coins are the most beautiful on the planet.

    Check them out! This is the first coin the has words struck on the edge.
    There was a lot that went out without the wording, those are worth a penny!

    The U.S. mint has put out a District of Columbia Quarter! Looks really hot!


    This made me laugh-it's the 01-27-09 strip.
    Don't tell me that he's that over inflated?
