1870 LCW Canadian Half Dollar

This is a beautiful Canadian half dollar & very rare. Crazy the stuff people keep. It’s worth a good amount of money too especially for a foreign coin.

Naturally toned, what do you think?

Sorry for the duplicate post. I'm new to this and curious what the community thinks about this toned Sacagawea dollar. Thanks!

Picked up quite a few half dollars and dollars from the bank.

I stopped by the bank after work to see if they had any of the new dimes. They didn't have any, so I asked if they had two dollar bills. None of those. I just kept going because I didn't want to have wasted my time. Anyway, I ended up with half dollar and dollar coins. It just so happened that the teller had these in her drawer. My question is, how common is it to find this many of these types of coins at one bank on any given day? As an amateur numismatist, I'm now thinking I should pop in the bank every time I happen to be in the area. Also, why don't they have the new currency? Would I have better luck at a grocery store? I'm a little embarrassed to ask for rolls of dimes that don't really have any other purpose - with quarters at least it may seem like I need them for a machine. Is it inappropriate to ask the grocery if they have a roll they can spare? This is mostly a hobby that we started as a family, so I mostly collect for the kids.

Sequential serial numbers

I received these two $5 bills as part of payment from my client. These are crisp bills from series 2021 printed, in December 2022 in Fort Worth for federal reserve in San Francisco. I received them in July 2026 in Jacksonville, Florida! Quite the traveling these did to stay together for that length of time and distance.

Picked this up yesterday

I understand it's not a rare date and was sold just below melt. Are the scratches due to cleaning or are these bag marks?

New to Morgans and trying to understand what sort of grade and if it's a good deal or I just paid fair. Guess you can't get fairer than below melt! I suspect it's just bog standard

Reddit, what do you think about the US mint creating a $2.50 coin and a $25.00 coin ( both legal tender) to commemorate the 250 anniversary of our independence?

5 Leva Alexander I 1884

Hello, I’m not a numismatist and I tried to do some research by myself, how to grade coins and stuff, but I’m still a bit confused so please excuse me if I sound stupid

I bought this coin in a street market in Bulgaria for a cheap price, I just thought it was cool to own a 1884 coin honestly. I looked it up online and saw that it sells for much more than what I spent on it. But I’m not 100% sure I got the right coin on Numista, I thought maybe mine was a knock off or something.

Could someone help me? Like what grade is it? And could I sell it for $60+ like what I’ve seen online about this specific coin?

I checked the rules of the subreddit and didn’t find anything saying that my post is not allowed, so if it doesn’t belong here I’m sorry :(

Real or fake

Obviously impossible to tell definitively if it’s real or fake. But I have had it while but always assumed it was likely fake and never bothered to send it in to be graded. Is it even worth spending the money to be graded.

Curious where BU should grade

So I’m looking at an 1878-cc they are asking $700 for it. My hesitation is that is NGC graded as Brilliant uncirculated.

My question is would this typically at least straight grade for ms60? An MS60 is valued at $500 which I’m willing to gamble $200 that it could grade higher.

I actually already own a few slabs of other coins with BU assigned so just curious what the minimum these should grade at.

I don’t have any illusions that they will be ms68 or higher, more looking at what the low end should be.

1803 Draped Bust 10c JR-1 value

Hello all, I was wondering everyone’s opinion on the value of this coin. I just got back from PCGS. It’s graded fine details as expected. I just sent it to them to get it authenticated as a JR-1. The few I can find in past sales are straight higher graded coins, but nothing in lower grades or damage/detail. What is everyone’s opinion on the value of this? I have an offer from someone on this, but it seems low. Thanks in advance!
