matttheriley Pillar of the Community United States 1512 Posts	Posted 12/08/2014 6:03 pm Picked this up today. China 1927 1 Yuan Sun Yat-sen Founding of the Republic - Commemorative "Memento Dollar" Fortunately its a one year type so trying to figure out what year it was minted was not difficult. Here it is next to my 1879-S Morgan pocket piece. Report this Post to the Staff

While I have some very low grade coins (including Victorian Pennies), they are just space filler in a year series or some coins which would be very expensive in higher grade. Don't forget that one can always lower the grade of a coin with the right methods. Report this Post to the Staff

mysilveryears Pillar of the Community United States 1888 Posts	Posted 12/10/2014 11:17 am I'm a confirmed darksider with a fondness for the 'older' stuff, so there are numerous specimens I keep that others might consider 'less than collectible'. And that doesn't bother me one bit. Report this Post to the Staff
