I do this stuff almost every day, just don't post everything. I didn't wanna bore y'all. lol...... This coin is from Greece, one of the very many coins that I saved in my travels during my 16 years of sea duty while in the Navy. I don't miss the Navy, but I do miss the travel! .......  Next are three Mercury dimes that I wrapped in sterling silver. Check out the condition of the coins!!    |

Really nice, Randy, you know how to wrap a coin (or rock, or...). The foreign coins are really cool, but there's something about good ole US silver. True story - when we were at Quartzsite a week ago, Mr. Rockpickerforever went into one of the "brick and mortar" type stores that sells RV stuff. He had to buy a $3 plus change part for our trailer. When he got back to the truck, he puts the bills back into his wallet, and hands me the change. I could hear right away that one of them was silver. I believe it was a 1962 or '63 (I can't remember now, he snatched it back from me the moment I said something  ) old silver quarter. That one coin he received in his change was worth more than the part he bought! Jean |

Great job on the coins. Wonder what the Mercury dimes would look like in gold...?

Those coins are just soooo cool. I have one I am supposed to wrap for someone. Been putting it off for a year now. Guess I better get it done!

Very cool Randy. You did a beautiful job getting those coins oriented and the wraps are great. John, "Randy wrapped a hooter"....LOL. I'm surprised no one else caught that one.
