    I mentioned before what got me started collecting was my grandfather passed within the last year and left my dad a bunch of coins. Well, I finally got to see what he left and it was 247 silver dollars and one, what many here believe as do I, a copy of a Spanish 8 reals. But I said I would get the details of what he left...

    Sorry about your grandfather passing..
    If you can, do an inventory of what coins he left to your family.
    I believe I it will benefit you if several different ways.

    Condolences on your grandfather passing.

    Your 1912 Liberty Nickel has a mint mark on the reverse. Is it a "D" or "S"?
