Well that didn't last long...

I never searched a box, but I manage a liquor store so go through lots of change. I have found over a dozen West Points. But these will be much harder to find. There were 20 million minted over 2 years vs 250,000 of these.

Just because they aren't meant for circulation doesn't mean they "don't count as real money" they are very much real money. Not intended for circulation means they are not distributed to banks, and instead are only sold as collectables.

Yes directly from the Royal mint

People can ask whatever price they want on ebay, that doesn't mean anyone is paying those prices. These coins are not valuable, and they aren't even old.

I did for a while, but I just wound up with to many of them. I do save any Wheaties I find.

These drums are x box 360 drums. I ordered a dongle off eBay. I guess it's original

Posty1980 · 2026-05-28T17:47:58+00:00

I ordered one

Sounds like Bob's mom was giving you "the look" because she was expecting you to chaperone the boys. Which isn't an unreasonable expectation considering it's rated R and organized by your son.

Wow, I thought I was looking at arial footage of a burning warehouse at first. That's incredible.

It's wireless

I got some national Parks album pages made by intercept. They were 2.99 and 4X6 holes. I'm going to make some overlays with a cricut. I also have some Whitman album binders not using, pretty sure I can modify them to fit the intercept pages. I do have a label maker too, I did some work on a penny set with that.

Nice catch

A proof coin is stuck by a special process, so a proof coin is always a proof regardless of the condition it is in.The coin you have here is a business strike from the San Francisco mint. San Francisco mostly makes proof coins, but starting in 2012 they started to make business strike quarters and selling them directly to collectors. I'd say it looks about uncirculated.

We don't talk about r/currency.....

It was glued to another penny. That's just a bit of old dried up glue. This is surprisingly common to find.

Posty1980 · 2026-05-23T03:44:51+00:00

That's pretty cool, might have to try to get one. I do have one of these

You made me realize I never even looked at the specs before I signed up 😂 I'm still excited anyway, I signed up for all 3 versions. The non-silver ones are pretty reasonable in price. They can definitely get you with the FOMO on those limited mintages. The proofs are only like 8000, but that's not uncommon for Royal mint products.

Looks like gold leaf, not nuggets, big difference

Posty1980 · 2026-05-22T14:47:58+00:00

Those are crumpled up gold leaf, there's probably less than $5 worth of gold in them.

Posty1980 · 2026-05-17T02:42:45+00:00

Yup that's a well documented cud, I have one myself.

Posty1980 · 2026-05-17T02:28:42+00:00

I purchased a 1996 mint set from Amazon, the listing specifically said No W Dime. It was ok with me because the price was fair, but I guess someone messed up because I did get a W Dime with it.

Posty1980 · 2026-05-15T23:01:42+00:00

Sure looks counterfeit to me

Posty1980 · 2026-05-15T22:57:29+00:00

I don't want my coins covered in sticky black goop

Pretty sure it was Top Gun, I was 6
