THE END OF THE SERIES

The end of presidential coins has finally arrived. Due to the great abundance in the government vaults they will no longer be circulated to banks to be given as face value.
However,the government will continue them for collectors and a premium will be added to the rolls. If any of my customers still want to add to their collections just e mail me and I will try to help you find them or sell them to you when they become available.
This is probably just the beginning of changes coming to the coin industry due to the fact our government is broke and is trying to save a few dollars.The penny and nickel will probably be on the chopping block next as reported in earlier blogs.
Furthermore,I just read in a blog that all money will be obsolete shortly due to people paying everything with their smart phones.
Stay tuned for more information.

I TOUCHED THE CIVIL WAR

Today while going through a bag of coins I found a FLYING EAGLE coin from 1858.Although heavily worn it struck me it not only lived through the Civil War but every event since that time.
Imagine the stories behind its years and it is now living in my home for a few years before it will be off for new adventures.
Just imagine what an ancient coin has been through.

THE END OF THE PRESIDENTIAL DOLLARS

The presidential dollar coin program is coming to an end for circulating coins. However,they will still be minted for collectors and this might be a blessing in disguise for the entire series because they will now be minted just for the people who want them.
They will probably be harder to find but when the entire series is completed will still make a very presentable book.
I urge the readers of this blog to continue forward and you will have an awesome collection when the series is completed.
