I would be tempted to put a bow on it and put it under the tree for Christmas morning....

If it was my bag, I would have opened it that night. Abe needs some air, he's suffocating. ;)

Penny, Nickel, Quarter, Dollar. Penny, Nickel, Quarter, Dollar. Penny, Nickel, Quarter, Dollar. Penny, Nickel, Quarter, Dollar. Penny, Nickel, Quarter, Dollar. Penny, Nickel, Quarter, Dollar. OK, I can help. Here is a mantra to make you smarter. Relax in a room with dimmed light and possibly music or background sounds. Start saying, "Tagoo." Say it a few times then add the second cadence of the mantra repeating, "Tagoo Siam." Now to learn the finished mantra slowly repeat, "Tagoo Siam Ohwah." As you complete this mind opening exercise, you will realize the challenge that confronts you. Or use them instead of sand in an aquarium. I dunno.

I still think you lucked out here. Paid $5, got $5 in clean 50+ year old coins. It's like breaking even on a scratch ticket. There was a chance you could've won $100, but you just got your $5 back. And others got to root for your good fortune as well.

Mayflower2020... I agree, I am not terribly upset, it was what I expected. Had this been a key date year of pennies, I would have gone through all of them and probobaly sent some in for certification and grading. I surely have some MS-64, 65's in that bag.

If you do have a red MS65 lurking in that batch, NumisMedia says it's worth $18.
