"Calling all coin buffs."
Can someone tell me what this 2 1/2 cent coin is? Country? Estimated value?
It is hard to make out the date, but it looks like ??95 possibly. Is that possible?
An elderly lady I work with knows that I MD, so she brought in a small bag of coins to look at, that her father had. These were some of them:
silver dollars (1881 , 1922 , 1923)
Half dollars (1942 , 1951)
Quarter (1943)
Dime (1936)
V Nickle (1902)
The neatest one was a silver dollar that she said her dad carried around in his pocket daily for good luck. He had literally worn both sides off perfectly smooth over the years, and it was about 1/2 as thick as what it should be. There was not a hint of an image anymore on either side. I hope it wasn't a rare one!
Thanks for your help,
