Too many people ask what does this mean and what does this mean. I want to put together an excel list for all the abbreviations of US modern coins. (Pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, halves, dollars) and other things to describe a coin. Then I have to figure a way to post the excel sheet to this. Maybe a link to the download. or maybe just past it

I want to mainly do this to help out the people new to coin collecting and to further my knowledge.

This has most of them. A lot of the abbreviations on this forum turn into links so you just click on it and it'll tell you what it is.
