Hello Coin Fam! I am new to the site, looking g for some guidance and advice on coins. I recently discovered that your pocket change can be more than its face value. So I started looking through my change and doing some research online. Now I look through everyone's change (if the let me). Pennies Mostly! However I still have a hard time determining if my coin is an error or man made. If the coin is worth having graded or not. A lot of the just getting started in Coin Collecting. So I am looking for to learning a lot from everyone's knowledge and experience from Coin Hunting and Collecting. I have a lot of questions and I hope to not get on anyone nerves with my many post because there will probably be a lot of them.

Thanks in Advance! Baby Duck

We are happy to assist any way we can. There are world class experts on this site who can help on any numismatic topic, so ask away.

I'll echo Greasy Fingers wise comment - learn how to take and upload in-focus cropped photos of the coins in question and you'll become a newbie all star!

One coin/question per thread please.

Ask away.
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art
