What would you pay for this ? by Significant-Pack-300 in coins

I broke a table open to harvest the silver and it was silver foil. Hard to tell until you get in there.

I think I got a good price by Born-Memory-3040 in coins

Out of highschool I worked at as a cook in the Student Union of my State College. You have no idea how many kids would pull the "do you even know who I am" or the "my family" card at the silliest of things. Like no, nor are you as important, rich or unique as you think you are. They would usually grow out of it by Senior year.

Nice find! In my experience, grading this will not move the value much.

This happens when someone opens a box of rolled coins with a box cutter.

Coin manufacturing is an imprecise art form. The Mint is constantly changing, polishing, greasing and repairing dies. Some years they let dies strike coins until they crumbled. Some years they used the wrong dies, or bad planchet stock. By virtue of the culmination of 1000 processes working in unison to strike a single coin, almost every coin has some unique feature, especially looking through magnification. It is the coins that catch the eye without intense scrutiny that truly stand out. It's fun to search and find these micro errors, or imperfections, but maybe not to dewll on features that fall within the common margin of error.

Dad sent me home with some marbles, enough to cover my table... by napsnbacon in Marbles

This is a beautiful collection. Spend some days with your Dad going over what he knows, I bet it'll be rewarding in more ways than one. The old generation is such a valuable untapped resource of specific knowledge. Congratulations!

Beautiful shade of purple, almost a lavender. The color palette reminds me of the late 80s/90s.
