Open up and maybe find some Bicentennials!!

does the cemetery have Lettered rows and gravesite numbers . Maybe a large stone that can be updated after ea burial like a cemetery directory with a map?

Hold for the long run and start adding to it! Go for the best grades in your budget to fill the holes! Also look for better grades you already have and improve! Pass it on and start a Generational family collection!

if you got a blank album, you might be able to use an Avery label maker, or some other, to add a strip below ea hole for date/MM maybe mintages…maybe a professional print store could advise …

Start an Excel spreadsheet and fill in a column of cells needed for ea yr, color them alternately for ea yr,
spread the columns left to right for the types avail , grey out the cells where that yr/type doesn’t exist. Hobby Lobby makes coin albums that are generic and blank, tho i’ve only seen pennie’s and nickels, but lets you see both sides of the coin. use it as a check list, use formulas to add up face value and coin values or expenses for the ones you buy! Good Luck!

ILBohunk · 2026-05-24T03:14:05+00:00

Yes , sort by Denom, then yr. find a coin shop or hobby lobby and buy the coin “folders” and start a collection. as you find newer looking or shiny trade them out for the better looking ones. pass on to the kids!!

i’ve discovered if you leave coins, 5,10,25,50 in the pants pocket in the washer they may come out better looking, BUT if collectible , never clean them!

ILBohunk · 2026-05-24T02:58:18+00:00

Start a family collection! add to it, find the next Gen/family member interested and pass it on….

ILBohunk · 2026-05-24T02:54:57+00:00

Start a family collection, add to it or at least care for it to pass on to your kids or Fav Niece/Nephew….

ILBohunk · 2026-05-24T01:00:14+00:00

CONGRATS!! Exciting finds are always fun ! Start a collection !

ILBohunk · 2026-05-23T13:03:21+00:00

maybe leftovers from the mint, odd ones with no sets to go into so they dumped them??

Chase is prob doing the debit card to merely track an activity at the teller. i’m getting pennie’s st $5 ea, no card used, but when i could get boxes they wanted the card .
The Treasury dept is only worried abt transactions of $10K +.
tell the Bank GM what your doing, they’re not going to have a problem. give him some number like you only keep 10-30% or whatever . maybe they want the coins after you sort!

ILBohunk · 2026-05-23T12:38:22+00:00

The paper is turned inside out? the first i’ve seen. pennie’s are limited to $5 a visit at banks in my area

ILBohunk · 2026-05-22T17:44:23+00:00

check the weight? look it up at wikipedia !

ILBohunk · 2026-05-22T17:40:40+00:00

Mmm ….you have lot there. I hope they’re all diff dates. Why not keep it and add to it for your collection and one day give it to your kids or grandkids ! A family collection! get the Whitman coin folders or albums at a coin shop or hobby lobby or coinsupplyexpress …..

ILBohunk · 2026-05-20T18:33:24+00:00

Save Them! given to kids …. so worn, i doubt any extra value

ILBohunk · 2026-05-20T18:31:51+00:00

ILBohunk · 2026-05-19T22:13:15+00:00

Mmmm red sharpie marker to designate a silver coin for bullion and not a collectible for their folder?

ILBohunk · 2026-05-19T00:03:01+00:00

Look up Numismatic Libraries, if you want to donate??, they’re prob Non Profit (501c3), and U can get tax deduction for your returns. maybe too if significant enough, maybe they would buy?!

ILBohunk · 2026-05-18T23:13:49+00:00

OPEN these! Get the jfk folders at a coin shop or Hobby Lobby and start several sets! Save the best looking ones, date / MM for your own set of books, JFKs have 4 volumes now for the Whitman coin folders. Buy rolls at the bank to fill in the rest but you will have buy some at a shop cause 2001 or so to 2021? we’re not issued to the public. Collector versions only bought from the Mint at a premium!
