A Beginners Guide to Coin Collecting
"A Beginner's Guide to Coin Collecting"
You are standing in the checkout line at the grocery store. Your turn rolls around, you pay the clerk and patiently wait for your change. As she places the change in your hand suddenly your heart leaps to your throat and for an instant you even forget to breath!
There in the palm of your hand is what appears to be a “Mercury Dime!” You quickly contain yourself and slip the change in your wallet. When you return home you are able to confirm that you do have a somewhat rare find!
The Mercury Dimes were produced on and off during the 20th century and have a market value of $50 a piece. Aren’t you glad you caught the coin collecting bug a few months ago?
Okay, maybe that was a bit over the top but make no mistake this story unfolds across the country very frequently. Just a little bit of knowledge and you, too, can learn how to distinguish the occasional rare find.
