The felt-style ones from the 30s

Kinda neat. Still, looks like more content for the recycle bin.....

Is there really any market for them?

Always found those interesting and tossed a few back to keep.

Not many people call themselves Morgan Dime collectors these days.

Wow

Me like

Keepers!

There is a reference book on the subject written by David Lange (who works for NGC). He buys and sells (and collects) them on the side.

I wouldn't throw them away without finding out if they are collectible. My guess is - yes they are. I don't know for sure, though.

Here is his website:

Shamika will like this thread. He actively collects vintage coin boards. He may be interested in yours. Do not throw them away.

I sent many of mine years ago to one of our members for evaluation., Never heard back. Still remains my only rather 'interesting' Forum transaction. Many others have gone without a hitch at all . . .

Always wonder what happened to my coin boards . . .thankfully, the ones I knew were killers (large cent, etc.) I kept . . . . . . . I love the old history ........... also collect the Meghrig, Oberwise, and other binders . . .

Love those old coin boards . . . .have a few here I didn't lose in the 'transaction' . . . .
