So, this could be a humbling experience - to ask on THIS website about buying old coins on ebay. Truth be told, I have yet to find any coin older than a '44 Lincoln. My son seems to believe in the tooth fairy. He's got TWO under his pillow that I've forgotten to address... I thought it'd be neat to give him an old coin instead of any normal change. I ebayed some old coins like half-cents and half-dollars and found that some people start em off super-cheap.
I know nothing about coin values and wondered what you'd suggest I get for him - a kid with no expectation of monetary value (no need to be rare or silver). I think he'd just think it'd be cool to find.
So basically, I'm looking for an inexpensive coin that's not fake. What would you say?
