on that should turn a profit also. Look for foreign money, wheat pennies,
silver dollars, coins older than 1964. If you have any questions contact
Jerry and he can check it out. A coin here and there adds up with today's
gold & silver market. Money to be used to paint and carpet

maintain a current list. May God bless us all.
