Stormtrooper's Mailbox Finds...Post them in here. (UPDATE 7-18)

Alright everyone. I have got a lot of PM's saying people are getting there coins. Now I wanna see who got what. Show em' off.

Thanks again guys!
Nathan

Update 7-18-07

I have a total of 17 packets left over from the first sale because people were unable to make the payments one way or the other (I understand things happen!). 3 of them are waiting for a buyer from the first sale that has already sent the payment, 14 of them have been confirmed available for sale.

I have had my mailbox filled with requests for more orders....but I only have so many left. So I have made contact with 6 people that requested more and have sold the remaining unpaid coin packets to them. Since I promised 2 gold coins and so far I havent seen any posts of the finds yet, they both may be in the remaining packets I have. I have no idea what I have because they are all sealed in the packets.

Anyway, Here is the list of the people that are getting more packets because they were the first to request them if any of them were unpaid for.....

ModernMiner
GoldenRoyBoy
BoobyDoo
Mike in Fla
Bill Gent
Treasure_Hunter

I am just letting the forum know this so they are aware that since no one has reported the gold finds yet...It's possible I still have them here or the buyer just didn't report them (strange not to report treasure find on here LOL). Either way, I just thought I would let you guys know that the hunt isn't over yet and good luck to the buyers of the remaining packets.

All the packets have been spoken for and are sold! I am sorry that I have no more to sell, but these 6 people were the first to ask and were offered them first. If I happen to run into any more collections that need to be sold...I will do it the same way so more people get the chance to get some. Thanks to the buyers and I am sorry I didn't have more for the people that requested some a little too late!

Re: Stormtrooper's Mailbox Finds...Post them in here.

Hello Nathan and Friends!
I too received my package yesterday containing 10 bags of assorted coins! Nathan, you treated me right! I've been busy the last couple of weeks organizing all my Metal Detecting finds; past and present. In my haste, I too got my take from you mixed in with coins I've been working on. All I can say is "Thank you!" and wish everyone could have participated! However, I didn't find no gold but I did find the Whitman pack of Jefferson nickels and the bronze Roman coin!!! :)

You did it a very fair way Nathan and I was really excited to get such a good chance at a gold coin.

I didn't get one but I am thrilled with the bootie that I did get,
a super fair deal for sure and well worth the money I paid.

This was REALLY FUN!!!! Thank you sir!

Here's the coinage that came in the mail today!

2 packets. I love the 1921 Morgan and the Mercs the best. Also the Steel Cent looks great. All these coins (including the foreign ones), will fit nicely into my collection.
My kids had fun looking at them and it was actually a very good deal.

Thanks Storm! :D

Re: Stormtrooper's Mailbox Finds...Post them in here.

Got mine in the mail on Friday, just now getting around to pictures. I got three envelopes, but I'm not sure what was in each one, as I went at them like a 4 year old at Christmas time!!! ;D

U.S. coins:

1863 I.H. cent
1887 V-nickel, says it was dug!
1904 V-nickel
1920 S Buffalo nickel
1921 Morgan dollar in really nice condition
1925 Standing liberty quarter
1926 Mercury dime
1927-S Mercury dime
1937 Mercury dime
1943 Mercury dime
1959 uncirculated dime
1957, 57-D, 58-D lincoln cents that appear to be uncirculated
Small bag with 10 or so wheat, and foreign cents

Foreign coins:

1920 Silver 1 shilling
1921 Finland 10 Pennia
1938 5 pennia
1941 Finland 5 Pennia
1950 W. Germany 1 pfennig
1952 India one pice
1953 Madagascar 5 francs
1956 Turkey 5 Kurus
1957 1 markka unknown country
1965 Denmark 2 ore
Syria 10 Piastres not sure of year, looks like 1977 or 74

If anyone knows about world coins, I'm curious about the 1956 Turkey 5 Kurus, and the Syria 10 Piastres. They both have the look and feel of gold but I can't find any info about them.

Here's some so-so pics.

I got mine last week and was thrilled with what I received. Nathan it's looks as if you treated everyone very well. Here's what I received.
A boat load of wheaties
2 buffalo nickels, a 1926 merc., an 1883 v- nickel, a 1930 markka, an 1888 penni from Finland, but my favorite is the BU 1897 Morgan dollar.
Thanks again, Mike
