I gotta say, life sucks right now. Depression is a bitch. Coins are the only thing that bring any semblance of joy to my life right now. Ive been told thats sad. I really dont care anymore.
Some silvers
Some W's
Some S proofs and NIFC's
Some foreign coins
What a busy week. I still have about 400$ worth of CWR's at work, and a box of MWR's at home.
Still no privy. But of course still seeing people find an absurd amount for themselves. Sigh....
I CAN HEAR THE DRUMS OF LIBERATION
.999 pure silver
2 2025 silver proof 10 Euro coins from the Monnaie de Paris French mint. They are 22.2 grams a piece. These were released to celebrate 26 years of One Piece. Besides the one they released in 2024, no other legal currency in the world features the One Piece anime.
Custom 2+ troy oz. cast of the Straw Hat jolly roger created by u/GlassPanther
These are my favorite pieces in my collection. I mainly look for pirate themed silver, so naturally I had to have these.
The dime and quarter in the 1st and 2nd picture are clad, but we added a silver quarter and dime to the collection this week after a nice little dry spell.
Customer deposited 1250 dollar coins and one of my tellers saved them for me to look through! I found some interesting coins!
5 canadian dollars coins! One of them is a Centennial dollar coin celebrating women's right to vote for 100 years. I thought that was really cool!
3 Indian rupee coins
5 George Washington Carver innovation dollars (I kept 3 and traded 2 for the last coin pictured!)
2 very shiny gold plated presidential dollars, 4 proofs!
3 native American dollars, 2 being proofs!
1944-S 50 Centavos from the Philippines. This coin is 75% silver!!!
And lastly, I traded 2 of the innovation dollars i found for this 1943 walking liberty half. Technically it was gifted to me by my awesome manager. I bought the 2 innovation dollars for him after he expressed Interest in 2 of them. After work that day he gave me this coin in return. I tried to tell him the value of it and told him to keep it, but he insisted, as hes not a coin collector like i am. Really cool surprise after a long hard day that day :)
Just came in today! I also have one of their silver gear 5 luffy coins on the way as well. Its from the French mint and is official currency. Its the most beautiful coin ive ever seen.
Im not kidding idk how this happened. I went through one more box last night and found 3 more 2020 W mint quarters. Im not complaining, but im very confused how ive managed to come across so many.
The war nickel was found in a night drop deposit bag. The literal first coin i laid my eyes on yesterday. Its got great details.
I genuinly dont understand how I come across so many. I tried looking up the math and I still dont get it. Statistically speaking, this doesnt feel real. I will take them nonetheless :)
I did NOT find these in the wild, I bought these today from a local gold/silver shop.
HAWAII 1935 Series A 1$ Silver Certificate (3$)
HAWAII 1934 Series A 5$ Bill (9$)
I paid 12 dollars for both of these.
If you didnt know, in 1942, the US government, fearing an attack on Hawaii by the Japanese following pearl Harbour, had these bills made to be used in Hawaii only. The fear was that Japan would take Hawaii by force and suddenly have millions of dollars to fund their side of the war. So they had all the bills switched to these bills marked Hawaii, so that if they ever invaded Hawaii, the US government would make it so any Hawaii bill was worthless. They used the designs from the mid 1930 for these bills which is why they all say older dates.
The silver Certificate is worth about 30 in this condition and the 5 dollar bill is worth about 60 in this condition. Had to grab em when he told me that price.
I found the proof and the W in a box, the rest came from customer wrapped rolls.
These are surprisingly not the first Korean quarters ive come by. And this also makes 4 balboa quarters.
These are absolutley gorgeous. Im reading the Odyssey right now, and these reminds me of the rowboats described in the stories.
The round is from the Intaglio Mint. It was minted in 2010 and depicts a Spartan warrior in battle with the ancient Greek phrase "come and take them".
Always love finding a bison with a date on it!
And also 2 more world coins i didnt have :)
The 1968 quarter and the nickel came from two separate customer deposits on the same day. The other 2 proofs I found in the last box I went through.
The 68 so shiny ✨️
22 in total, most of them were found in boxes from loomis. Id say 5 or 6 I got from customer wrapped rolls while working. Nothing beats seeing that W in a sea of P's and D's 😭
These two came from the same box. Its the 2nd box ive found more than one W in. The first time I found 3 in one box. I didnt even know I was missing the American memorial one. I thought I had that one already so that was a neat surprise.
Id like to see how many I can find by a year.

The Siren
The Privateer (or The Storm)
The Captain
The Kraken
The White Whale
Im missing
The Plank
Davy Jones Locker
Ive been lucky enough to snag these at insane discounts through auction websites. They tend to fetch a very high premium above their weight in silver. The last 2 are a little more scarce it seems. Ive been keeping my eyes peeled. Pirate silver, it seems, has become a new obsession. 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️
CWR for the win!
Johnny Cash quarter
2 S proofs
3 spitting horses
1 homestead "snow on the roof"
Finally getting the declaration of independence quarters coming in. No privy yet.
Some canadian nickels and dimes. One of the nickels was for some 50 year anniversary or something.
2 liberty dimes (for the first time in circulation)
2 Colombian 50 pesos coins.
Happy hunting!
Unopened! I had 11 different ones, no silver and no type 1 bicentennials. Would love to fill this one one day.
2nd purchase made extremely easy and quick. Thank you!
