I have a friend that owns a store in the US (I live in a boarder town) and he has been collecting coins since he was a kid. He lets me go through the quarters for the State Quarters,I have been giving him all the commemorative coins that have been coming out for the last 6 years so the exchange is about even. Well last time I saw that he had a can of pennies and nickels so I asked if I could go through them,This is what I got,

5 Indian pennies - he had more but I was just filling holes.
5 war pennies
41 wheat's - all kinds, filling holes
8 wheat's in the 50s all MS60+
10 Liberty nickels again filling holes
25 Buffalo
7 silver War Nickels
and 3 silver Canadian dimes

He than said here you can have these
45D,46S,47S,49D and 50P all in PSG Slabs and graded MS69 RED

Well I was speech else but I did try to pay him, with no luck, but he will get a nice coin or 2 or 3 when I fined them.

I agree, thanks for sharing.

Is it possible that you meant to say PCGS?

It's nice your friend would do that for you (Mine wouldn't - they all collect coins and don't like giving them away!)
