Found this going through my dad's coins.

Thought a coin that is 196 years old was pretty cool, especially in this condition...

Did you google it? What’s it worth?

My father and I used to collect a lot of coins when I was a child. I had all the silver Dimes and Kennedy silver half dollars by year.

When I got divorced years ago the ex wife took them from the house and sold them at a pawn shop. Pretty crappy bc they weren’t worth a lot of money but to me they were worth so much more bc I spent a lot of time w my father at the coin shop and saving my money to buy them. Still hurts

I got a set of Silver Eagles from late 70s to early 2000s,

more half dollhairs than I could count, thousands of $1 coins, etc from my Dad's collection. He was a banker and he collected all that stuff through the years. When he died, he had over $6k in $2 bills. When they would come through the bank, the tellers would bring them to him and he would "buy" them from the bank. I assume that is how he got all the $1 coins.

My grandfather happened across a side-by-side (double barrel) 12ga shotgun many moons ago. It was hand-made from France, Damascus steel, etc. Small manufacturer. Found some stuff about it n the internet, but it is hard to find ANYTHING on this gun. Found some info on the manufacturer, but no clue how much it may be worth.

I got 2 50 cent pieces as change from lunch today
