#65 Coin Collecting

I've never collected coins for fun-only for profit. Even then, they were the small coins that seem to accumulate at the bottom of my purse or my husband's pocket. They get put into the appropriate roll and taken to the bank. I dug around in a piggybank of old coins and came up with a bicentennial Kennedy half dollar. Wanting to know it's worth, I checked the Historical Image Library, but it wasn't any help. I was going to look in the Red Book at the library, but while checking other areas, I found it on ebay. To my sorrow, it wasn't worth much-guess I won't cash it in just yet. Using the Professional Numistmatists Guide, I found several local coin dealers, but I won't be visiting them. However, their websites were interesting. I'm not seriously interested in being a coin collecter, but I did collect all the state quarters-just for fun. However, if I should happen upon a 1894 Morgan dollar, I might change my mind! FYI- it's worth $9,200.00.
