Woo Hoo! I found my lost coins!!!

XpipedreamR · May 22, 2005 12:59AM

They've been lost for about a year and a half. I had pretty much written them off, but they turned up yesterday, and they had been right under my nose the whole time

A couple of the neater ones:

Bad planchet! Bad, BAD planchet!!!

Off center

Tiny clip

MUSHROOM!!!

There were also a few miscellaneous US errors...some off center and clipped cents and dimes...and a bunch of foreign coins that I won't bore you with

Very good, DB!

Where did you find them?

XpipedreamR · May 22, 2005 1:08AM

They were just in a big envelope in a stack of stuff on a shelf, right next to a shelf where I keep a bunch of coins

I never keep coins on that shelf, though

Glad you found them.

That's awesome, and I know the feeling well!!!

Here is my thread on a lost and found coin.

All's well that ends well!

I'll never tell. And don't ask about my 64 Peace dollar, either.

Shamika · May 22, 2005 2:48AM

Hey, I've got an off-center steel cent too!

nwcs · May 22, 2005 4:40AM

Really cool coins! And even better since it's like getting them all over again new.

I bet it was in the last place that he looked.

NumisOxide · May 22, 2005 5:25AM

Good thing you found them. They look like really cool errors.

Myqqy · May 22, 2005 5:46AM

Did someone say "mushrooms"?

northcoin · May 22, 2005 9:33AM

Ironically, every one of those "under your nose" coins has a nose! Not to be nosey or anything, but wouldn't all the clanging you heard when you sneezed have given you a clue to their whereabouts?

Were they in your mouth?

NoGvmnt · May 22, 2005 11:05AM

Isn't the "off center" actually an off-center center?

I wish I could find the 1955 Double die I lost!
