@Greasy Fingers Not really,


Quote:
feel accomplished $25 later - lol!

FYI - for those who asked - mint-wrapped just means circulated (or uncirculated coins) - business strikes which are counted and wrapped by the mint.


Do you need to know what the mint wrap mean?, and etc.?

Looking for my personality or personal, maybe I am different from the others. The moneys is not the point. I just over buy 200$ a coin just to full fil a hole. Later I hope to find a better one, I hope, god will help me.

My point was do not come to push down others and you to come over. Not more.

I deal with many kind of people (patients) 26 years and if you speak with me I can figure out 50-75% what you thing in that moment. I know I am a difficult person to deal with; but I like respect, recognize of own faults and celebrate the victory or accomplishment of others of your circle and outsiders also.

We are here for a passion, for a hobby who invade our blood, to learn and to develop ourselves more and more; not to be put on the corners or insult by x or y.

It is my vision. Coop here I respect at the high, it is an encyclopedia, I even confront him and I agreed (more or less with the back answer) or him accepted (more or less with the back answer, hope never be mad!). So are mean we are here to share our own opinion not to confront or insult.

That 's is. I just wrote what I perceived psychological and social.

Yes - I went through a $25 penny box from the bank. I'm sorry - I still need to complete the intro about myself. I have been soo busy with homeschool in between all of this.

My son is seven and inherited my late Aunt Sophie's collection. He fell in love with the idea of collecting and searching for valuables - rare and historical. I started researching to help him understand and then I caught the collecting bug too - lol! Right now we hit the bank maybe twice a week to try our luck and also order coins (mint and third party) to build our collection. We are constantly discussing proper storage, metal compositions, various strikes & finished, the grading scale, errors, and the historical significance of each mint date. He is working on his Coin Collecting merit badge from Cub Scouts. I'm thinking about getting certified at grading.

I am a civil engineer by training. I understand the general value of what I find but post when unsure or, in this case, just to share. Hope this explains a bit more.

FYI, "the Mint" does not roll any of their coins, with the exception of special offerings. "The Mint" upon minting coins bag them up and send them to independent companies who count the coins and wrap them (or roll them) to send to banks.

No worries at all. I understand completely! I wish I could speak another language. You are lucky.

KTCoin I understand very well. No problem with. Misspelling or better say write the image of our mind and think at one point could take deafferents ways. We are humans and we are like this. Now I understand you. I was a little mad by the short cut to explain, not more. You state, been civil engineer so you must really 100% understand how the people perceive an short cut explanation which sound aggressive, in fact you have to deal with this every day. I own a construction company also and now I understand.

Welcome here. We do not care about prices (very volatiles thing), we care about the coins.

Certificate coins? Balance. I am collector. I do not buy the slab of X or Y TPC, I buy the numismatic artifact. If you pay the certification, calculate well the balance.

So I was hard with you I agree, but was the moment, and it is past.

KTCoin,
Can you post pics of the rolls before you open them or the wrappers after you have opened them?

@ silviosi:

No worries, A persons post gets read or taken wrong all the time. The mind is pre-wired to be defensive first. Heck a of my post I put up sometime ago was taken the wrong way and I got ripped for it. Then After a much longer explanation of the thing we were all posting about, everything was ok.

I don't like to be long winded when I post. Just short and sweet - nothing but the facts (as I see them). But doing that it is easy to read something into a post.

Well I already typed far too much for one post, so I must be moving on to other places.. TaTa

I will post pics in a few minutes. Thank you for the mint-wrapped explanation. When I go to the bank, that is how they refer to them (and how I ask) but I understand the process now.

I speak 2 language's, English and bad English. Thank the lord for spell check.
Definitely worthy of 2x2 flip and keep it. I've got a lot of coins I've found in circulation that have great eye appeal such as yours.

Nice find, indeed. Good coin to find, too. It's amazing how a coin that old can stay in good shape while a 2020 Zincoln can be a mess!

Stay well,
