Watch your change

OK, that has to be the dumbest story I have ever seen. The premiss is that you might have valuable coins in your change, but they are talking about 1795 penny?

Shows how close I read the whole story...with the lincoln pennies pictured I thought it was a 1975 reeded edge lincoln error coin they were talking about which theoritically could show in your change. The chances of a 1795 one would be very rare indeed. :shocked04:
 
All that I find in my piggy bank are stinkin zincolns lol But if someone wants to give me a million for one of those, I'm game :cheesysmile:
 
Wow.. being a coin collector, I can tell you that is written from the dreamers perspective. Just like so many people have a Buffalo nickle or a Morgan dollar and think 'Wow..this is old it MUST be valuable.' Not true. Most are worth little more than either a buck or two or the precious metal spot price. It has to be RARE or sought after. Those coins are not likely to be found in a piggy bank or pocket change.

I've been getting some 60s coins but nothing much older so some one is getting into collections.as far as real valuable stuff not my luck.that reminds me of that song -forget the name but went-all the gold in california is in the bank in someone elses name.
 
nope all i pick up is the occasional wheatie

thats where you keep all your precious zincolns from the better cellar hunts, huh. lol :tongue:
 
The rarest coin I've ever gotten from circulation would be a few war nickles here and there... I'm certainly not going to get rich selling them.
