I thought about giving these coins their own individual posts but I have found them before and they are so common that it seemed repetitive.
There seems to be a sudden drop off in interesting finds.
Running out of finds so maybe it wasn't a good idea to put these two together. Oh well I will think of something if that day ever comes. Happy coin hunting to all, maybe little behind for the rest of us.

It is kind of annoying when a coin as old as the 1982 Cayman Islands cent still has no official mintage listed.

Do you have a coin and want to know its value? Leave a comment/question and I will do my best to find out the price and history for you.

First of all, it has taken me two days to figure out how to post a comment or contact you... Nothing in the entire website Ive clicked on until now has yielded any means of interaction...
Now that Ive ranted, I respectfully wanted to talk to you about several Canadian and other coins and medals I have come across lately:
* 1871 Canadian One Cent-fully legible, slight pitting, good definition
* 1888 Canadian One Cent-" " , excellent condition and definition
* 1896 " " " " " " " " "
* 1918 " Five Cent tiny,tiny, tiny but in excellent condition
* 1903 Nederland(Netherlands) "25 Cents" (size of a US penny, resembles a wheat cent on obverse side) Excellent cond.
* 1905 Mexicana 10 Centivos very small, good cond
* 1901 Canadian V (five cents?) front side legible, back side almost smooth.
* Lewis and Clark Centenial Exposition(1904?), Portland Oregon, gold color medallion in excellent cond.
Would love to hear your comments. JHS

Been lucky out here in Seattle. Last week I found a 1957 dime on the floor in front of the Coinstar machine. Since last July, this is the third silver dime I've found, and the second I've found near a change counting machine.

Cool at $2.55 each they are a great find.
What's the value of an 1841 US large cent? Condition seems to be at least Fine (LIBERTY fully readable).

About $25.00
At which grade does it become above $35?
There's a coin shop selling it for $35 in some relatively decent grade, and I wonder if it's a good idea to buy it. :-)
(P.S. That refers to the above-mentioned 1841 cent.)

Very-fine is usually $35 or more.
Defined as all details sharp and only slight wear above brow in the hair.
The key is the hairline above the brow if it is detailed it's worth it. If not then it is "fine" and see if you can buy for $30 or less.
I based my assumptions at Photograde Online :-)
Actually, looking there, I see no difference between their F15 and VF20, but F12 is certainly far lower than this coin.
In fact, now that I think of it, it might be anywhere between F15 and VF30 - but I'd put VF20 or VF25 as most probable. Bit hard to judge a coin's grade when there's only one side visible and it's impossible to look at it closer than from over a foot :-)
Also from same coin shop:
50 schilling, Austria, 1966 "Bank" or 1970 "Innsbruck", claimed Unc (MS?) - for $32 each (they're silver, right?)
3 marks, Prussia (??), 1914 (IIRC), but bad condition (Fine?) - for $35 (a better (VF?) condition of another year was $43)
500 mark, Germany 1923-A, aluminium, VF+ (no price listed, got as gift to regular customer or something, so probably not very valuable)

--Any good coin shop would allow you to inspect the coin before purchase. If VF-25 then yes $30 is right on target.
It comes down to what you like and can afford. Don't worry about getting the perfect deal.
50 schilling, Austria, 1966 "Bank" or 1970 "Innsbruck", claimed Unc (MS?) - for $32 each (they're silver, right?)
--About $22.00 each, both are 90% silver.
3 marks, Prussia (??), 1914 (IIRC), but bad condition (Fine?) - for $35
--About $18.00 90% silver
500 mark, Germany 1923-A, aluminium, VF+
--About $1.00
They do allow me to inspect... if I come there after 4pm (when that section's main dealer is there). And I'm unable to visit the place at any time other than about 12:10pm for schedule reasons (basically I have classes to go to).
BTW, if you didn't remember, the amount was $35 (though I suppose that's actually a fairly minor difference, and the coin is new enough to me that I can easily forget it).
Also, thought that Austrian one would be worth more because it's uncirculated (which it does look like), as well as foreign and commemorative; as for the price, apparently the site I originally got silver prices from hadn't updated them for about a month, and they seem to have fallen a lot since (under month-old prices it would've been $26 or so just for the silver).
What do you think would be better out of this and the cent, BTW?
Oh, and for the German one, my guess was VF+ because of the coin itself. Now that I know what it should look like, I think it's more like XF.

--Yes I meant $35 but $30-$40 is a fair price.

--Before silver started rising these were $14.00 in uncirculated.
So since silver is outpacing collectors value these only have metal value.
At 0.5787 oz. ASW it is $20.25 but in high grade it may add a $1 or $2 at most.

--Unless you can get the silver at metal value U.S coins are always best.

--About $1.50 this is the most common of all 500 marks so it will never have a large value.
today i got a 2005 P Kansas state quarter missing clad on back side all copper color weights 4.7 grams also has slight misalignment on front

About $200.00 in mint state. Possibly more if graded 2005 did not see many errors like this.

--About $3.00 in good
what about this new pure $20 silver piece the canoe why wud they put a 20$ value and sell it for 20 they r sold out but?
--It is 7.96 grams meaning it only has $9.00 worth of silver. The mint always puts a value higher than the metal value.
