I was at the estate of a family that ran a chain of laundromats. Naturally they went through a ton of change. Fortunately they set aside all the unusual looking coins.....& I was able to buy a pile of them for next to nothing. I'm planning to use the proceeds from the sale of these to buy a new truck and add a screen room around my pool. Anyway, here's pictures of the entire lot & a few of the better errors/varieties.

This is a shot of the entire lot.

Here's a few of the bubbled planchets.

These were struck on partial planchets.

These were struck on under sized planchets with wide rims.

All of them appear to be PMD, no premium. The last picture looks to be Dryer Coins... I suppose that is appropriate to come from a laundromat

They are Dryer Coins, so PMD. If you sell them as Dryer Coins and not as errors I see no problem with that.

From the catacombs of a laundromat--interesting collection. Sadly, not errors. You may need a few tons of these to finance a new truck and construct that screen room.

trdhrdr007, You will get more money if you send them to a grading company. Maybe you can get a bulk submission discount? Nice find!

Wow - I also bet most of those are solid gold that has been plated with clad.

A whole lot of ugly there. Mostly spendable change, or take to a bank for ex/change. LOL
