Sure they are worth your time...

Lots of history there...

If only they could talk......

I often as a little girl would wonder when I held old coins, is where have they been, and did somebody famous spend them...

That's kind of why I like old beat up coins myself. ....They are just neat.

Nice old coins, well circulated but allowed to age gracefully...

They would make a good foundation for a YN's starter album.... Cheers, RickO

As long as you leave them "as is", they are great coins! Do not clean, dip or polish them. Welcome to the forum, btw!

I greatly enjoy looking through piles of Wheat cents and that 1910-S looks like a terrific piece.
