Welcome McGoldy11 I'm fairly new to this myself but have made good use of this site , I just have to check for new post once or twice a day. I as well started with Canadian Notes, But find it hard to not get drawn in to Coins. I have found that shows Have been my best bet, I realy like the idea of s...

Socrispy , sorry if the info provided has not been what you would like to hear. I’m sure that what was offered was meant to help, they are yours now and you alone can decide what you would like to do with them. Your uncle was obviously a collector and it sounds like he collected some stuff that he c...

Ya some times it’s not worth the effort but still maybe you would be starting a new collector if you found a youngster that would buy them from you at face to start a collection. If all you get is face at the bank anyway.
Happy New Year to you and everyone out there that’s part of the collecting clan.

Socrispy , this website can give you a pretty good idea of what you have that may be of any value. Or find a coin show or sale that is near you and take your stuff there talk to a few different coin dealers. Sorry to hear that you are willing to distroy the currency rather then have someone find som...

Thats it coinguy thanks again, and with a rarity index of 93 it sounds like its not that common, dont see anything there about value but dont have much time to look right now, thats a great starting point for me to do more investigating.

I dont think so as there is no monetary value on it. But great to know there are some out there thinking on my little problem

I knew some one would want a Pic.. I have Kids coming home for Christmas so will have them give me a lesson on how to do that, Thanks for the interest troubadour. Keep a eye out for me after christmas hopefully i can post a pic. It was something put out by the city of Regina for there 60th anniversa...

I have come across a Metal Token "June 19 , 1963 Regina, Queen city of the Plains" Diamond Jubilee can any one tell me a mintage or have a idea how much value it might have. Sorry im not good at the picture idea and I know its not easy to make comments without seeing it but it is in fairly good cond...

Thanks bushman74 l like getting all the different ideas as to how to deal with a problem. When you talk about rubbing the coin after soaking in vegetable oil you just mean with your fingers?? I was a little unsure of a long soak in the acetone but did try it on one coin . It did a not bad job of rem...

Thanks Coinguy, For me the most important thing is to get rid of the tape glue with out hurting the coin, will track down some acetone and give it a try.

Still no one wants to have any input on this?? Coinguy indicated that it was only worth the silver value , so that would indicate that you can’t devalue it by cleaning it.

MDracing , i see where you didn't get anyone replying to your question. lets try again. I just got a few silver dollars. One in similar condition as the one you show in your picture but on top of the staining it has 50 year old Scotch Tape across one side :twisted: then some others that are quite ni...

Point taken. I sure don’t think of myself as any kind of a expert, and anyone that’s in to coin collecting should gather as much info as they can, from as meany sources as they can and then draw there own conclusions . To your point of cleaning in away that would enhance the look of a coin . If anyo...
