Hello all and a long time no chat to ya!

I went over to my grand parents house to continue my mission to clean it out. Thinking that I have come across all coins and curreny, I was wrong. Came across a nice size lot of Us and several different type of coins from various countries. More exciting is the amount of MINT US paper I came across. Mint 1934 20$ bill, Mint 1$ silver cert. As well as many other mint 5s and 1s in numerical order. My grandfather was a branch manager for Barnett Bank before he retired in 93. I truly had no idea he had any interest in currency. A nice 1911 dime stands out on the latest find. Found a really cool gold coin. However, it is foreign too and not round in shape. Infact, it looks like the gold was poured and let stand to near dry...then they put in some cool designs.

Sorry if I can't spell tonight, but I have been up for 27 hrs. I will try to get a better list of my current find.

Oh, to boot, found 5 Rolex watches as well. Those two won't be getting sold. All but one are mint and will go into a case.
Rest in Peace

Jayson, you found a treasure trove like many of us have been fantasizing about finding most of our lives. When you get rested up, please give us some more details and maybe some images.

OK, here is what I brought back today.

Kennedy 1/2 1776-1976
" " " 1966
Dollar pieces 1922 x2 and a 1935


Worldy coins
1942 Canadian 1 cent
1982 Canadian dollar (coin)

Bunch of coins with holes punched out of the center in varying sizes

I have 6 envelops with coins from Germany, Switzerland, Holland, Italy, Austria and England.

However, the english coins aren't what I am familiar with. The are from various years 45-65


Now for the paper stuff.

The world paper is nothing to special at first glance, so I will skip right to the US paper.

First envelope appears to be a Mint 95' 20$, 85' $1 (with santa sticker over washingtons portrait), and several sequenced $1 bills

Next envelope has 3 57' silver certs ($1, a 76' $2 bill, and a nice 49' cuban peso (paper)

In a plastic holder we have a 1935D ($1) Silver cert

Last Envelope has a 1934A $20(bright green on the reverse), followed by a 1995 $5, and a string of connecting $1 bills again.
