RE: My Bro Brought Back A Few Coins From His Visit To New York

in #steemsilvergold7 years ago

The Susan B Anthony & Sacajawea dollar coins never really took off. You get them around but for some reason no one here really likes them.

The quarters (state quarters and National Park quarters) are kind of collectible. Kids keep them. I try to keep one or two of each but their value circulated is just their value. I could see trading a regular quarter for one of yours just to try to round out a set, but don’t know that I would give you extra for the trade.

Same deal with the presidential coins. They release a few new ones every year. But let’s be honest, not every president is worth commemorating! 😬😄

Sort:  

True, I/he is not worried much about the value of the coins. more info on them.
I did find out The Susan B Anthony was similar in size and metallic composition to the quarter and looking at them, not to much difference in size. so I can see how they were mistaken for each other easily. why they changed the colour to a more gold colour with newer $1 coins.
I guess they'll never take of while the $1 notes are around. here in uk they removed the £1 notes and replaced with coins so you had no option but to use the heavy coins.
