We have been going through a very large collection all yesterday and today. Rolls of coins  Proof sets  Some of the rolls of Lincolns  As I find some interesting coins, I get to put them in my to buy box. I thought these were very interesting.   Does anyone have any experience with clipped coins? |

A little...The dime is about a 30% clip with date in MS, worth quite a bit, so is a 35-40% clip w/date in MS as well. Values will be higher for these because of grade and full date showing. I have no idea the worth, but they may be TPG canidates for max $. Really, really nice, haven't seen examples like that for a while. Is this for your shop, or personal, and are any for sale?  |

I work part time at this local coin shop .. so I can buy coins for my collection. I have never seen coins with this much clipped. So I have no idea of value. If they do have value .. might have to go into my "To be slabbed pile" |

We were just working on the bulk stuff today. And they owner is going to get the good stuff from the bank boxes and set up the next sale. I am saving up for that. Oh .. I did take over $800 face in change to the bank today ... you roll hunters keep a eye out ...  |

Does anyone have any experience with clipped coins? Well, I found one once.  I don't think it's worth getting them slabbed. But I did get mine slabbed. I found it when I was 14 years old, kept it in my jewelry box for decades and finally got it slabbed. It has sentimental value -- it was my first error coin find.  |

So, GR58...the big question is... how much of that collection is now in yours? Seriously, that would be some fun stuff to go through. |

I was just looking at some sold listing of clipped dimes on ebay. Might not be worth sending them into NGC, but maybe ANACS if they have a good special. |

Looks like you got a good group of them crazyb0 I think mostly I like having examples of all the different areas of this hobby in my collection. ----------------------- Are the rest of the items for sale in an auction perhaps on-line maybe. A lot of collections like this get sold pretty quick. To local customers and other dealers. The lady I work for does list coins on ebay, if she thinks she can get more than selling local. I try to get something for my collection each week. Most times we don't know what is coming in, so it is hard for me to stay focused. |

Very nice! The only collection I have gone through (to buy) was when my best coin friend who is also a dealer put together a little lot so I could buy it...my smile lit up the whole room when he showed me the lot!
