I just found a 1946 wheatie in my change at my local food lion. What are the chances of this happening?
I know this is not really a post, but does anyone know how hard it is to start a coin club? There are no coin clubs within a 50-mile radius of me and i cannot get to the nearest easily.
Going through pocket change can yield many wonders. Just recently, I traveled to West Virginia and found a 1930 Wheat Penny in my change. When you travel to places without many travelers in or out, sometimes coins will just circulate within a small area (Like that penny!)More following.MercuryDIme

If anyone could tell me what this is, or send me a pic at my blog, that would be great. this coin is very interesting to me.
TWENTY CENT PIECE.The Twenty Cent piece was designed by William Barber, it weighed 5 grams, and was similar in size to the quarter of the day (1875-1878).The twenty cent peice debuted in 1875 as a convenient denomination for the West, as silver coins did not circulate in the East and Mid-West. They were often confused with the 25c piece, due to similar size, weight, and design.They were often passed of as quarters even until the Great War began, and were then hoarded in great quantity.

Collecting Ca$h for beginners.1. coins. Coins should be touched only with cotton gloves, as latex gloves will damage them.Breathing on them deteriorates them.2. Paper Money.Dont touch with hands. put into plastic sleeve.
The Importance of the Three Dollar Gold Piece.The Three Dollar Gold piece is an anomaly to most collectors, and some speculate that it was used for one purpose: The purchasing of a 100 stamp sheet of 3 cent stamps. It is valuable today for several reasons, rarity, SHEER AWESOMENESS, and the price of gold; as gold is skyrocketing.More to come soon:)(how do i change from user_16299?)?
