Here we are, almost half past 2010, and the only coins from 2009 and
2010 that I have found in circulation so far are one Guam quarter and
one Virgin Islands quarter. The only coins available from the bank
have been the Presidential dollars, and in whatever quantity you want.
I have however gotten 3 wheat cents and a silver war nickel in change
in the last week.

Jud -Still checks change-


here in Pennsylvania I have been able to get rolls of most of the new
releases (except 2009 & 2010 nickels and dimes) from the local banks,
I am limited to just a few rolls of each usually, but sometimes my
favorite teller will have a sealed box of pennies for me!

Speaking of war nicks, I got a 1943-P in change last week. Not bad!
Last war nick in change was about 10 years ago.
Jud -Remembers war nicks, Walkers, Franklins, Liberty dimes, wheaties,
and occasional SLQ in change-
and lots of indians in pre '58 bags. i would get 40-60 usually pretty worn
indians in each bag of wheats i searched. got the occasional cn and one
flyer.
i still have about half a bag of inians from roll searches.
sure was a different universe.
I was going to say, back in the 50s (when I was a single-digiter) I
remember receiving coins from Jud's list plus IHCs, buffalo nickels, a
single flying eagle cent in about 1957/8 or so (this 5/6 y/o thought
it was a fake back then), and even the occasional worn slick Barber.

Very frankly, I can't begin on that one - from a certain standpoint, I
would be better off if I had simpy kept every U.S. 90% silver coin
that passed through my hands. Yes, I usually traded that junk U.S.
silver for some better numismatic coins that brought (and still bring)
great pride of ownership. But with common U.S. silver coin at 12
times face or more...

It boggles the mind how little one paper dollar buys today.

I have a simple 'geezer' test. Only one question.

1) Have you ever spent a silver dollar for face value?


I have, and therefore I am.

Jud -Older and Wiser Now-

I bought 25 of them at the bank at $1.00 each for my in-laws 25th
wedding anniversary so I guess that is close to the same as spending them.

To which I now reply:

Oh, YES! Back in the 50s, Grandma Dennis used to give us
grandsons
Morgans and Peace Dollars when we went to visit, and we couldn't
wait to
run to the mom & pop five and dime store down the block to spend
them.
Not just once, but many times.

I have progressed from geezer to codger myself. Soon I hope to become
a 'curmudgeon'.
