Wow, nice finds on the merc and the SLQ! Regarding the quarter, I'm assuming it has some road rash since you mentioned it spending some time in the parking lot. That's unfortunate, but an SLQ is an SLQ.

Thanks, Numisma! I've had a run of luck with my change lately, it seems. Yep on the SLQ - it's not anywhere near as bad as most of the road rash I've seen (other end of the spectrum, picked up a Zincoln the other day where he's just a totally flat, grey silhouette on copper), but the reverse has those telltale gouges. But I'm agreed with you on that last sentiment - any of these that I find, I'll count myself lucky!

I found a 1935 wheatie at work today. Always a pleasant surprise finding anything pre-1940.
Rest in Peace

I got a coin that says 1 F Belgie 1990 instead of a dime. I don't know world coins, so I'll have to do some research.

It's obsolete and has been replaced by the Euro, but according to an online currency converter it's equal to about $0.0367 CAD.

Does throwing an obsolete coin in a wishing well mean the wish doesn't come true? If so, this thing is completely worthless, correct?

I think the value on this piece is minimal.

Yesterday I found a silver 1968 Canadian dime in the rejects of the Coinstar.

My gf found this San Marino 2004 5 cent today. First time I saw one in circulation. And it's in nice condition, regarding minting year.
