Not sure if there are any collectors but we have a few clippers.

That looks like a Morgan Dollar to me.

When I was a paperboy, my dad would take my Morgan's but gave me 1.25 for them, I was a kid and thought that was great. Had that route for 5yr. Fast forward 50yr I still have 5 coffee cans full. Dad had them in garage with my name on them.

Thanks guys
My dad had some coins out today. He's got 3 of these Morgan's. Other 2 are in plastic cases. Bunch of silver dollars from the early 70's , silver pennies, 1/2 dollars, and some proof quarters in plastic. All I'm sure are more emotional but never seen the one above.

"Silver" pennies could be wartime steel pennies...

Morgan silver dollar. And 1921 was the last year for them. Has about .785 ounces or so of silver in it. I bought over 400 of them a few years back from a guy from Montana. Some of the ones from the 1800's with the CC mint mark can be worth thousands but common ones in rough shape can be worth about $25.

My dad was big into coin collecting when he was a kid. I think a lot of those guys did that back then.
He went to work at the local drive-in theater when he was 12. This was 1958. It was just down the road from his house. The owner would let him go through the change at concessions.
In high school, he started working in the local theaters and he would do the same thing there. This was in an era when a lot of old coins were floating around.(Late 18th and early 20th century.
He continued collecting on into adulthood.
We got them all out one time before he passed away. It was pretty impressive.
I have a few coins but never got into collecting them. I don’t need to collect anything else, lol.
