re: Tips from MT Coin Collectors

Well I'm fully dug into this while I am on my coin kick. I have a box of pennies and a box of nickels in my room, with a box of half dollars ordered at the bank. The half dollars will not arrive until next Wednesday and I am going to pick the pennies and nickels over the weekend.

I already went through about $16 in nickels and have found several nickels between 1940-1960.
I could buy a nickel booklet and build a set of the 1960s with the abundance of those that I have sifted through.

I have also searched Craigslist for the meantime for coin collection offerings and I have asked my tellers for any junk change. One teller had an Eisenhower bicentennial dollar but it was already claimed. The rest had a few half dollars and there was a painted coin locked up in another teller's tray, that was being discussed.
