    Im about to sell the 1840 coin for 20$.The silver content is worth 8$(that was a month ago, silver stock has risenpretty nicely around 33$ an o)if that is gives you an idea.

    I found them in the house i live in.


    lol


    Edit-also in my city on craigslist they have tons of coins.You should check your city.
     
  5. I was just reading about the East India Company in the December 2011 High Times issue. A shady bunch of crackers.

    But those coins are pretty cool. Worth much?

    Edit: nvm I didn't read the whole thread before posting.
     
  6. I always check Cl for coins and flatware.. Theres like 5 various gold eagles and libertys that I would love to buy but they are sooo pricey, and yeah, I am pretty stoked about silver sittin pretty at 33:smoke:
    If I was you, I would put it on fleebay, I saw a few listed from 20-85 bucks in various grades. Its definitely worth more as a numismatic than in silver value, So you might could score more than 20 on it...:hello:

    Hell if you were close, I would offer you 25 just for shits and giggles.
     
  7. My dad has a silver US dollar from 1796. Ill try and get a pic for you guys.
     
  8. My grandfather passed last summer, and I inherited quite a bit from him. One of the things he left me was his coin collection. I was in utter amazement at how many different coins he has, and how old some of them were. Ive got probably four old tin cans with nothing but old silver dollars, and a shoe box full of different important coins like these. Pretty neat to go through everything, even though I don't know the first thing about coins lol.

    Ha lol pretty cool little tin I picked up at bed bath and beyond. I think they have mushroom ones too, if I remember correctly. Came with "coin" candy that tasted like ass, now it holds my seeds. :smoke:
     
  11. Next time we see OP is on that antique show were they have the auction of all the old stuff, Showing off his coins right before he sells them for a fat sack of cash..
     

  12. I have the mushroom tin and ? box. The candy is awful, but they make great stash boxes. I grind up a bunch of green and fill that ? up to the top...then tons of ready to go smoke on hand lol.

    Great stoners think alike lol. I used it to keep my bud in it, when I was in college. Just throw it in my book bag, and I didn't have to worry about it being smashed or anything. Now that I'm done, I no longer need it to transport but it's still of great use lol.
