Today's coin show finds!
October 26, 2008, 08:01:29 AM
Here's some neat stuff I found today at a local coin show I would like to share: The four coins in the 2 x 2's was $10 for the lot. The 3 British pennies I got for $1, the Isle of Man "Bank Penny" for $1, the 1940 half crown for $2, and the 1903 Canadian 5 cents for $3. Did I do well?

Interesting variety of finds!
FYI-- your Canada 1903 5c was struck in Ottawa vs. the Heaton mint coins--and it's scarcer; 1M vs 2.6M minted.
At first glance, your coin appears to be VF, which Charlton lists at $30.

Just one year for the bank penny--very cool!
I wish I knew more about the others, the East India Company 1/4 Anna coin is very nice too. From what I've learned from Sir George, that coin would be unavailable for export from India. And yes--$3 for the .925 Ag 1903 5c is my kind of deal--great "old silver" toning too.

Well, Ma'am, you're just going to have to come visit now, aren't you!
Do add this coin to my collection?
Cat? Australian? US? Really Old?
