I was looking through a 90% silver bin and saw some Franklins
that didn't look to bad.

I kept seeing some 1958 D's.

How many are compelled to pick coins from their year of birth?


I could not stop myself, until I picked out a roll of 1958 D
Franklins.

Smart pick up, not only beautiful coins it is a good investment as well, I don't think there are any listings for 58D errors but a nice pick up some of the coins look uncirculated!

Those are good looking coins. Perhaps you collect the last year of LWCs also?

Nice coins. I have a higher percentage of picking up coins from my birth year or my home state.

Beautiful finds, nobody can pass up having a roll of Franklins! I just love the simplicity of the design.

Nice ... I like 58 proof sets too .. my guess is I only
have 2 or 3 sets. A few more single proof 58 Franklin's.

I am with you on that ...
I think I have mint rolls, still in mint wrappers for the state
I was born in and for states I have lived in.

Over 30 years ago I picked up a BU roll of 58 quarters ..
I know I have a BU roll of 58 nickels ..

Now that I am thinking about .. I wonder if I have a roll
of 58 dimes .. I will have to check ..

It would be nice to have a roll set .. cent through half...

Nice GR58~!!

+1 roll of Franklin's is super.

Being your birth date makes it even nicer.
