Re: Starting a coin collection!

Awesome I have a lot of old coins too!  big_smile  My favorite is my 1803 penny. To bad it's in pretty bad condition. >.<  If you look around a bit you can usually find a place that sells wheat pennies for 5cents or so.

Re: Starting a coin collection!

Awesome! I'll look up your coin in my coin book and tell you the value for worn ones! Let's see.....            if it has small date, large fraction-60.00 ( american money)
if it has, small date small fraction - 60.00
if it has, large date, small fraction-4,600 dollars ( no kidding!)
if it has large date, large fraction, nothing...

So there's your value. I have no idea what fractions are. Google all of those and look in images and find one that looks like yours. I ho[e you get 4,600!

Also, it's called a draped bust cent.

Re: Starting a coin collection!

Believe me I've done a lot of research on it too. XD I'm pretty sure it is large large. Fraction is how big it is I think.

Re: Starting a coin collection!

I've got all 50 states quarters, plus DC, American Samoa, and Virgin Islands. I also have several nickels with special backs. I have the Sacajawea golden dollar, and a quarter with something special on the back but i don't remember what... i'll look that one up tomorrow. Do stretched pennies count?
I have some South African money, as well as a bit of Canadian and British. And not to mention, Israeli, because that's what i regularly use.  tongue

The dime is physically the smallest coin, the penny (1 cent) is smallest in terms of value.

OK, here's a picture of American coins.

http://i48.tinypic.com/28ciy48.jpg

The first one is the penny, worth 1 cent, smallest in terms of value. The 3rd one is the dime, which is the smallest size-wise.

Edit: Never mind, you got it.  tongue
