welcomeI've been running this web site for several years now, but there has been little interaction. Starting now I'd like that to change. I'm not sure exactly what those changes will be, but I'm planning to write about coin collecting, whether it be news, trivia or whatever floats my boat at the time. Feel free to comment and share information about the hobby of kings. » Permanent link | The site Reader comments
My son and I are just getting started. Any suggestions? » by Andy Bullock on January 06, 2004 @ 10:06 PM #I suggest you choose a series to collect and read up on that series. For instance, you could begin with State Quarters and as your collection grows, you'll learn about the meaning of each of the designs and their significance to that state. » by dan on January 07, 2004 @ 12:06 AM #sI have a sacagawea dollar 2000p that has "liberty" in blue, the "in god we trust" & the year in red and she is in color. Have been looking on internet sites but do not see one like it...any info? I also have a 1988p dime with a copper front & silver back...almost mistook it for a penny at first. again, unable to find one like it searching internet. » by sshirley on January 14, 2004 @ 09:18 PM #The colored dollar is a common item in airline magazines. They're just regular coins that have been colored to make them collectors items, but from my experience they aren't worth much more (if any) than a regular coin. The dime sounds like it is missing the zinc covering on one side and could be worth something. » by dan on January 19, 2004 @ 10:44 AM #I put some coins in a book and to make them stick I used sticky squares. I am transferring them to a see through plastic page and am wondering how to get the sticky squares off my coins without damaging the coins? Reene: If the sticky squares can be peeled off with your fingers, that would be my first suggestion. If that isn't an option, my next suggestion is to do as described in the FAQ: "Dirt and other foreign substances adhering to a coin can sometimes be safely removed. Try soaking the coin for a few days either in olive oil or soapy water, followed by a thorough rinse with tap water. Dry the coin with compressed air or allow it to air dry. Do not rub the coin. Commercial coin cleaners may also be carefully used to more quickly loosen foreign substances." » by dan on February 04, 2004 @ 02:31 PM #I have a $2 bill that has a date of 1935. It has a red seal stamp on it. Is there any information you can give me about this bill, like it's value-etc.. Chris: Here's some information about $2 bills with red seals. As far as the worth, here's a 1928 bill starting at $6.95. You could follow the auction to see how much it sells for. » by dan on February 07, 2004 @ 04:54 PM # |
