What Do You Do With Your Ancient Cull Coins...

If one side is good, and good enough you could use it for jewelry. I only have maybe three coins in very bad shape. I threw them into a small felt sack with a drawstring to close it.

Hey, Sel_691.

Let's see some of those coins you have! I haven't seen one yet that I can remember right off hand.

Theres a guy that sells culls at my local carboot - 50p each. I'm going to buy one and see if I cant get aqnything from it from stripping the patina off.

Otherwise, ill donate them to a worthy cause.

some of the coins that are ok (you can tell emperor maybe but can't attribute), but I don't want for my collection I may sell on ebay some day, or I may give them away if I find someone interested. I've given several to a history teacher at the community college I work at and a couple to friends. these dwell in an envelope in my bottom desk drawer.

if they are culls but you can make out something, a bust outline, you can see it is a fallen horseman coin, you can pick out a couple of letters, something like that, I stick in another cull bag....i mass these up and send them to forumancient coins. if anyone knows another good cause i'll donate to them also. I remember several months ago someone was talking about using them in a class project for school?

I know not what these "culls" are of which you speak. I assume by "culls", you mean coins in such poor condition you don't want them at all?

I have several coins in really, really poor condition. I don't do the cleaning-the-uncleaned thing, so I don't have very many; they'd have come from bulk lots of world coins I've purchased, or maybe I've fished them out of dealer scratchtrays, hoping to maybe identify them. They are unidentified and unidentifiable. They are, nonetheless, part of my main coin collection, filed under "Enigmas".
