Values of Old Coins, Stamps, Etc.
Are you aware that there are in circulation hundreds of dates and varieties of coins which could be sold to coin brokers at rates in excess of their par value? These brokers purchase the coins to sell to coin collectors (numismatists) most of whom are wealthy, and when anxious for certain dates or kinds to complete their sets, they sometimes pay enormous prices, even offering as high as $5,000 for a certain U. S. coin of 1848. It often happens that coins which seem to be very common are wanted by the brokers, and if the ones who handle such only had a reliable list, they could ascertain their real value. Only a short time since the daily newspapers contained a statement about how a shoemaker took a coin in change, as ordinary money, and happening to be in the habit of comparing his coins with a Coin Manual, he found that this piece was valuable, and sold it the next day for $1,100. Even recent dates are sometimes valuable, for instance, quarters and half dollars of 1853 are worth from $5 to $10, a cent of 1856 brings $3, but we cannot undertake to give further examples as there are hundreds of them. Many people have become rich by keeping their eyes open for old coins, why not you? The best places to find them are in the country districts. Numerous Canadian and other foreign coins are worth big sums. We might also add that similarly high prices are paid for old stamps taken from envelopes that have been through the mails. Even the most common kind are saleable in quantities, and if you get the best book of prices of stamps, you will find that there is no humbug in the oft-repeated story of the “value of a million stamps” or even a single stamp, oftentimes.
