Pretty cool stuff. My mom liked collecting coins, and at one point had a ton of genuine silver coins from the 50s and such. She had to pawn a lot of it though. We still have some, maybe I'll go through all the coins one day and see what we have.

Hmm, that's interesting, are you sure it's a gold half dollar? You can check coinsite.com, which is a quick reference site I sometimes use. Here's a list of values along coins of half-dollar to gold dollar values:

I thought gold only came in dollar coins. If that's the case, your dad's got a very valuable piece in his collection.

Did you ever get that book I told you about a while back, and if so, did it have this bill's value there??



Was it the red book? Yea, I purchased the current version of one at the time, which was 2007, I think? It only had coin values though

I doubt the silver bill's worth anything more than its face, though. Maybe another dollar at most haha


Yeah, probably not, but it's cool just on age alone. Age typically doesn't matter much for value. Roman Empire coins are worth jack. Value is generally determined on the amount of a certain coin or bill minted and then the quality of the selected piece.

The gold coin can range from being totally worthless (Sacagewea coin) to being a lot (Krugerand or something like that). It's totally impossible to tell without seeing

haha i just arranged all of my change.. it was ranging from 1974 to 2009
strangely, my dirtiest coin is from 2000 (i could barely make out the numbers of the year)

maybe one day ill find something cool the only inconsistency i find in my coins so far is all my quarters usually have a year printed in the front (like 1979, 2003 etc..) but one quarter doesn't have a year printed on it, just 1952-2002 in the back. i imagine that's a special 50 year anniversary coin or something. pretty cool

It looks a bit like a 2 euro coin (ring colors) but the design and measurements aren't the same

No year printed on the front? oO

It probably is a bicentennial quarter commemorating the half-century like you said, but the one I'm thinking about still has the year printed on the front, with a drummer design on the back.

Are you able to take a picture? I'd like to see it if you can upload a pic!

Do you have a coin collection at all? I'd love to see samples of foreign currency as well

When I was a kid, I used to examine every coin and bill I had very closely. Nowadays, I don't really do that although from time to time, when I do notice something odd about the currency I'm using, I'll take a look. The most interesting things I ever found were:

1927 Wheat Penny
1954 Canadian penny (found in California)
A very poorly counterfeited $5 bill.

Yeah, mercury dimes are pretty neat. I was fortunate enough to find two of them in the cash register while working. They're like the dime counterparts to the Indian pennies.

Speaking of which, I could never find an indian penny

I completely assumed you were talking about the US quarter, how biased of me :p

If you can, it'd still be cool if you can take a pic. The quality doesn't matter too much, so if you can just upload one and pm me or something

I found a 1918 3 pence coin in front of my house randomly, it's not in very good condition though
I do have a small collection as well from various countries.
And yeah that's definitely not a Euro coin, you can clearly see the dollar sign on it.

I had a regular customer at one of the restaurants i used to work at. He would come in every few days and ask to look through all the one dollar bills I had for the day. He would pay me 5-10 dollars a piece for these rare dollars. He sold them on ebay I think.

So if you wanna pick up the hobby again befriend a waiter or two ^^

Wait, just exactly what did he find among these one dollar bills? oO

Also, I'm surprised he was allowed to even search through the ones. Did you watch him closely while he counted through them?

This was a few years ago, and I never really asked too many questions about them, but if I recall correctly - the main thing he was looking for was "serial numbers" (or whatever they are called) in a certain order like 3456 or something for example. Also he looked for defects.

He worked a couple doors down from the restaurant and I knew him fairly well - I would just hand him a stack of fifty ones and he'd look through em.. (it was the cash I had been paid throughout the day, not from the cash register or anything)
