In the past few days I spent 5 dollar coins and 1 half dollar for turnpike tolls and food at a coin auction. Then I spent 10 dollar coins and 1 half dollar at the Relay for Life this Friday-Saturday. Then I spent 12 dollar coins and 5 half dollars at the flea market today. This totals 30.50.
$98,425 to go.

Thought you might be interested to know that I have found 2 Sacagawea dollars here in Canada in the last 3 months, in rolls of Canadian 1 dollar coins. A 2000P & a 2009D. Haven't ever found any before over the years, they were found about a month apart, different banks. Nice to see thar some are circulating enough to end up on my side of the border! |

Do they have to be golden dollars, or will Susan B or Ike dollars count too? |

I think as long as the coins are $1 and Half then they are counted.

I think as long as the coins are $1 and Half then they are counted. Here is the original post: Quote:
I propose a Coin Community Forum project called Project 100K where we in the course of regular commerce spend $100,000 worth of golden dollar coins or half dollars. Post here with how many you spent, where, and what if any curious anecdotes you have regarding your transaction. I don't know if the decision was changed to include SBA and Ikes.  We need a ruling |

nice play at the restaurant, Fuzz. Ok, so I put twenty six of the 50 Chester Arthur's I bought from the mint in circulation, putting the rest in Saflips... not that any of them made MS-66 or above. Really lousy quality from the mint... but then again they made 7 million of them, I hear. $98,333. And as the original author of the post and thus the rule maker- I will allow Susan B. Anthonys, but I am holding on the Ikes for now. Instead, I will allow the spending of Morgans (aka Bland dollars) and Trade dollars. So Project 100K allowable spends: Golden gollars Susan B. Anthony dollars Morgan dollars Trade dollarshalf dollars (all types except barbers and patterns) Edited by cc99999

I wont be spending a Morgan unless its my bottom dollar.. literally. and even then i'd better get more than 1/4 gallon of gas. |
