  3. Wierd coin error

    I got this 1984 D penny with a fragment on the obverse but the weird thing is that the fragment is strongly struck with a design of a penny reverse. The fragment seems to be a little piece of plastic that is fused on and as far as I can see there is a BU red design underneath the fragment that...
  4. Is this a proof?

    I know this is not a coin roll find or a metal detector find but I do not know exactly if it is a proof or not. I once bought a 1940 MS-63 nickel but it looked like it had proof features like a cameo I was wondering if it was a proof. It is probably not but it might be. Do you think it is a...

  8. My buddy found a gold coin without a metal detector

    I received a call from a good friend of mine, who knows I collect coins. He was walking and kicked a gold 1903 British Half-Sovereign out of the snow in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. He didn't know if it was real gold or not, so he called me. (I can only wish to be so lucky.) He told me to come by...
  9. Sound advice for gold and silver bullion stackers

    If you want a real piece of honest advice from a veteran of collecting, trading, selling and buying in large quantity ; I recommend that you only buy pure silver or gold (99.9% or 99.99% / .999 fine or .9999 fine), because come sell time, you're going to face mass scrutiny and assaying...

    I am looking for a microscope USB camera to take close ups of coins. I saw a brand called Dinoscope. It's really expensive, $400+. Does anyone have any recommendations for a cheaper option? Any and all help is appreciated.
  13. Is there is a COINspiracy going on with armored services culling for silver?

    I demand congress to cull these cullers from culling our treasure! I mean, how do they report their profit from the cull? Where and whom does it go to, and is it sold/traded/etc by it's silver content or face content? Do they have to report to theIRS or is it all tax-free free silver? We need...
  14. Coins Cache or Ore?

    There has been two dowsing hits on this image. They were close to each other but not real close. One hit ore and one hit coins. So I am asking for a third opinion. I would suspect there would be silver ore in this area but the two prior hits said gold. I would even be happy with meteorites...
  15. Just a little over a month in the game, and I hit the jackpot! (with story and pics)

    First of all, how would you react when you see something like this?: I went to one of the many banks in my home area the other day requesting a box of dimes. This was the first time I had requested so much coin from them, and they told me they would call me the following week to let me know...
  16. Forum noobs first box!

    So I recently stumbled onto the concept of this coin roll hunting and was immediately interested, so I went ahead and ordered me a box from my lifelong banking institution. It came in and I got to checking it out and lo and behold - four '64s and forty three 40%ers. I'm hooked.... So much so...
  17. British Sovereigns

    I have a collection of British Sovereigns dating from 1899 to 1973 (obviously not the years they stopped making sovereigns!) All are 22k gold and are in excellent shape (close to uncirculated). I am trying to find values for them, but there are no places near me that deal with anything except...
  18. British gold soveriegns

    I'm trying to find out some values for some old british 22k gold sovereigns. I have 15 loose sovereigns varying in date from 1899 to 1973, and 2 set in 9k gold cufflinks (coins were not damaged). All are in good shape and I'm trying to find out if their best value is to be sold for melt-down...
  19. What to do

    I went to two of my parents banks today (I'm 15) in hopes of them having some halves. Nope. Not even a couple in the tray. I know I should probably ask to order a box per week but I only have about 150$ to spend. Can you order specific amounts? What should I do?

    Treasure hunters in Alabama are welcome to join the group "Alabama" for general discussion of everything. Only two members as of 7/29/2012 so lets get the ball rolling with some new recruits!
  21. What specific years are da goods?

    I know for halves pre-1964 is 90%, and that 1964-1970 is 40%. Is this the same with quarters and dimes? Also, what types of halves, quarters, and dimes are valuable? I have heard barbers, washingtons, standing liberty, walking liberty, rosies.... but i have no idea how to identify these. Can...

    Hello everyone, I recently went to Vermont, and went detecting, coin roll hunting and garage saling. I found my first ever half dollar, a 1944 Walking Liberty, and in the same hole was a 1947 Rosie. Found some great stuff at the bank as well. Thanks for looking!

    I just got my new Fisher F2 and I am loving it. I have already found about 50 cents in clad and a hotwheels car. Not valuable but fun to dig. I have been detecting around an old baseball field and also a picnic area at my church. Any suggestions on where to dig? :dontknow:I want silver!

  26. Old Token and Some Coins

    I'm very new to metal detecting and just did my first beach yesterday. It was a small swimming pond that had been dug to build an interstate. I didn't think it was too old but found a dateless buffalo nickel and a 5 peso mexican coin from 1980 which was weird because I live in a northeastern...
