Do you have coins in your collection that are only worth face value?

braddick

If so, and you kind of like them, this is the thread to share with others!
(This is a no shame, guilt free thread.)

As far as face value coins in my collection, I have tons of them that I have accumulated over the decades! I have rolls of old Jeff’s and wheat cents pulled from circulation. Jars and cans of state quarters, Kennedy half dollars, SBAs, Ike’s, etc. I could go on and on. I even keep just about all of my pocket change, but I do try to get rid of the cents, especially the zincolns.

1999 quarters to present date, copper cents/pennies, and a few others piled up some where

I have a coin folder with all 50 state quarters found in circulation. Does that count?

I wonder if someone has a binder of Wawa parking lot coins? Peace Roy

Yep. My Washington quarter album of 1932-1974 has some clads I literally pulled from change. Same with my Lincoln album of 1909-1995.

I have many such coins.... Bicentennial quarters, Kennedy halves, SBA's I got in change, coin jars full of pocket change - separated into cents, nickels, dimes and quarters.....Others just put away such as dateless Buffs and wheat cents. Cheers, RickO

I used to maintain a circulated set of Roosevelt Dimes. The album is still on my shelf, so there is my "face value" collection. I also have a few modern coins in slabs for my registry set that aren't worth much more than face value if they weren't certified. I also "inherited" a set of State Quarters from my mother-in-law that is in a Littleton Album.

I almost felt the need to go
to confession and ask for absolution, after opening this thread. Forgive me, Father...

I have some Canadian that is worth less than face value.

Not only are they worth only face value - they are even slabbed by PCGS! Thats because for inventory, storage, etc, I pay to get many circulated minor varieties in holders. This one does not even have a value listed in the price guide. But it is a cool variety/cud.

metalmeister

Wasn't that the origins of coin collecting? and Yes, I am guilty as charged your honor.

MrEureka

I'll know better when I try to sell them.

nickelsciolist

Only the majority of my collection. The rest are killer value.

ECHOES

Yes, wondering why...
This was, is, the way I collected when I was young.

TwoSides2aCoin

I have 30% of the face value plus labor putting it in the holder. And by golly, I can get 90% of it back if I put it in the coin star machine.

jedm

Yes, Washintons, Kennedys, Ikes, and Lincolns.

Baley

I've got many many bank rolls of ucirculated state quarters and presidential dollars, and a brick of two thousand 2005D buffalo nickels, all bought at face value.

If I get the gumption later, I'll haul em out and take a picture.

coinbuf

Yep
