I got a 1 dollar Silver Certificate in change today.

I bumped an old thread. I know.

FREE SPEACH -- ?

Rare coins won't be worth more than face value in the event of a collapse. Collecting is a hobby.

This is why I am trading the old silver coins for current silver, taking profits while there are still some.

Nice. I always liked the blue seal on those instead of the green we have now. It looks like some idiot got into Dad's coin and bill collection and started spending the bills at face value.

^^^ The store should tell the cashier to watch for who is spending them and provide video to police. They are probably spending rare coins too.

Oh no.

I thought I made a huge mistake by taking 70% silver coins to the bank. Wasn't worth my time to exchange them for cash.

AND the steel pennies that stuck to the coinstar magnet, missed those too.
