There are a slew of Wheat penny's as well and quarters from all date ranges. The Wheat penny's could be a different post to share. But, are any of these coins worth looking into more or worth value? (one coin is one I posted yesterday that the forum deemed to be hit with heat the "1943 P Jefferson War Nickel P Monticello")...thanks for info on that... I appreciate the look at these :) TTP Edited by TTProcess14 03/14/2023 11:52 am Report this Post to the Staff

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5765 Posts	Posted 03/14/2023 12:01 pm Very sorry about your loss. Congrats to you for taking some time to enjoy their collection. It can seem overwhelming but it's really best to post one coin at a time to avoid confusion with replies. I'm guessing the three images of the envelopes weren't intended. Most of the US clad coinage is just pocket change and worth face value. The Lincoln cents are copper and the 1968D has a very remote chance of being a DDR (Doubled Die Reverse)http://varietyvista.com/01b%20LC%20...8DDDR001.htm The Morgan dollar is in a bezel and probably values in the $25-$30 range but might be worth more if the MintMark is punched over a CC mintmark. Circulated foreign coins can eat up a lot of time and usually get left behind in the Coinstar machine. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Edited by Petespockets55 03/14/2023 12:22 pm Report this Post to the Staff

coin rejector Pillar of the Community United States 2829 Posts	Posted 03/14/2023 12:44 pm Whenever I stumble upon a 2000 Sacagawea dollar, I always check to see if its a "Cheerio", and in regards to the '79 SBA's, there are wide rim versions. Report this Post to the Staff
NumisRob Bedrock of the Community United Kingdom 17878 Posts	Posted 03/14/2023 5:49 pm The seven-sided 1982-dated coin is a current British 20-pence, worth about a quarter if you ever come to England! The one below it looks like an Elizabeth II shilling. If on the other side it has a shield with one lion on it and is dated 1959, it's worth a few dollars, otherwise just a few cents. The brass coin to its left is a French 10-centime piece, practically valueless (replaced by the Euro in 2002). Below it is a fairly recent low value Thai coin although I can't tell much about it from just the obverse side.

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15381 Posts	Posted 03/15/2023 04:58 am to the CCF I see nothing of numismatic value, the clad coins (1965 and later) are worth face value. As noted the Morgan dollar is damaged by the addition of the bezel but still worth silver melt value - $16.95 today. They likely have greater sentimental value coming from your grandparents. Set aside a few that appeal to you and enjoy them in that manner. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff

nss-52 Moderator United States 54280 Posts	Posted 03/23/2023 11:11 am I'm not convinced that the Morgan dollar is authentic. I really don't like the shape of the date digits.
