  1. Wonder how we can get this thread pinned to the top like the others. Thank you @Mohawk for starting this thread. I love silver coins. Hopfully this thread will stay alive.
  2. Ive got 5 mystery snails. I enjoy watching them. I got some fish also i love to watch.
  3. Very interesting thread. @JKK i really enjoy reading your responses in these threads about ancients. It helps answer some of the questions ive had rattling around in my mind. Not only do you help the OP's who ask about them but, you also help people like me as well. Thank you sir.
  4. I try to read some of them. Certain peoples i just scan on by them. Dont waste my time reading them. I think its better to try and get to the point. Its ok to do some explaining but ones that take up half a page i dont bother to read them unless its of some importance by a trusted member. If its one such as the one slick coins wrote about the counterfeit that go on forever and ever i skip it.
  5. I got one out in college. He been staying over there. He still lives with us when hes off tho. Then i got a younger one still in the nest. Our birthdays are also all lined up. Start in May , June, and end July.
  6. I can totally relate to this post. My wife gets tore up sometimes when i buy a coin i really like.
  7. I just didnt know much about them. I didnt know exactly how the clad layer is put on them. And how the cause would come about. I think im gonna do some research on it and try to learn the exact process.
  8. Its been heavily circulated. Theres nothing i can see special about it. I agree 25c.
  9. Thank you all for the replies. I told him about all the replies. He is very happy. I kinda figured it was the real deal when i was inspecting it. Due to the look and weight. Also the ring it makes when it lightly bumps other change. We couldnt match the sound with a regular clad coin. Thank you friends.
  10. Be a good one to put in a flip if its the real deal. The weight is what has me wondering.
  11. Its not mine. Gotta give it back to my coworker. Just checking it out.
  12. We were out working away from home and stopped at a store. My friend got some change back and we was looking thru all of it once we were outside. I noticed a quarter he got back had a funny ring to it when it was dropped in the other change. I looked and noticed it looked like it only had half a clad layer. He sent it home with me for more investigation. Is it possible for only half a clad layer to be missing?
  13. Thank you. I really like it. I was very happy to get the winning bid.
  14. Some nice looking stuff from everyone. Great additions everyone. Thanks for sharing.
