The ones I've gotten are always newly minted coins.

I had one group that purchased Ike $ from me to include in their solicitations.
PNG member, numismatic dealer since 1965. Operates a retail store, also has exhibited at over 1000 shows. I firmly believe in numismatics as the world's greatest hobby, but recognize that this is a luxury and without collectors, we can all spend/melt our collections/inventories.

I got three or four CU dollar bills in an envelope once. If I remember correctly, it was from Nielsen, the TV ratings people. The serial number of one of the bills had 5 or 6 nines in it, i.e., xxx99999. I sold it for $10.
My mother-in-laws mail comes to our house. She's frequently receives cents or nickels in the mail with solicitation letters from wherever. Almost always they are new.
Got another nickel in the mail yesterday.

Ive never gotten anything but requests for more money and flyers. Ive gotten the addy stamps several times tho and honestly love them. Theyre easy!
Id donate to anywhere that send me new coins in return. Im already paying more than face at the mint so who cares, Id rather it go to charity.
