Had to share this weird find... I just got this from a guy I bought alot of murcury dimes from he said he got a briefcase for $50 filled with coins you want it. So it being a mystery I said why not... I opened it to find all the same year coin with a singlen silver dime, civil war token and a Indian head. All the tine foil rolls I moved into that container for the second picture and thats all the loose ones that was underneath them. Most are uncirculated some have specks and coloring from being not covered? So Far I think they all large date but I only checked 10 or so. That where all Large date.. I will update picture of of few so I can see if I judging the ld sd correct.    |

Just found some 1960-D so looks like this lot is semi mixed.
the token (might not be civil war) -22 mm -OLD Brass Token reads "COMPLIMENTS OF HB HEINTZ BRO'S RING MAKERS" Pictures a BUFFALO on front with hb stamped on it below that it says "BUFFALO, N.Y." and on the reverse it says "RINGS OF QUALITY STAMPED HB."

That would make my day! I would be searching them for varieties and putting the BU coins into tubes.

I am going to do that and post the results and updates.. there was also a 1913-d LWC in there too. I have a good example set of 1960 / Small / Large dates to compare them too.. |

So far these two coins are typical of 100 coins - 30 specs - 90 are 1960-p 10 are 1960-d all are large date all are uncirculated. 2 minor "BIE" basically two filled 9 on date not worth photo but separated I got a reference coin but large date / small date still confusing me large date -  large date -  |
