I still think they are interesting, but other things eventually pushed them to the back. I will buy a silver coin here and there, but that's about it for me now.<br /><br />I tried to shake the card a bit to see if the coin would rotate around. It's pretty tight in the capsule, so I didn't make any progress on that front.RAZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17519699812373438878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974740724487938002.post-19709221804784415792016-06-07T11:09:39.435-06:002016-06-07T11:09:39.435-06:00It looks like you can get lots of dimes from a spe...It looks like you can get lots of dimes from a specific year on eBay pretty cheap. I found lots of 50 dimes from 1990 for about 34 cents apiece and lots of 40 quarters for about 64 cents each. In the end that's (probably) cheaper than having employees sift through piles of unsorted coins.<br /><br />It seems like the stamps might have been more difficult to source for a given birth year, although depending on the year you could probably buy them by the sheet and cut them up.RAZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17519699812373438878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974740724487938002.post-17413988900303508822016-06-07T11:00:20.497-06:002016-06-07T11:00:20.497-06:00Very cool, especially as I also collect both coins...Very cool, especially as I also collect both coins and stamps. But it would drive me absolutely nuts to have that card with the dime being put in there like that, without seemingly any care to make it upright.

It makes for a neat little blend of three popular hobbies.Tony Burbshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17916383902665781661noreply@blogger.com
