Have You a Silver Dollar Bearing the Date of 1804

It is hardly worth your while to look through your silver dollars to see if you have one of 1804, but should you-come across one of that date you will be able to dispose of it for the nice sum of $3,500. A dollar of that date was found in New Haven, Conn., Friday, having been excavated by a laborer. Odd coins are being sought by numismatists and if you have a really rare coin all you have to do is to make it known and you will be offered a good price. All are hot valuable that appear to be, however, as there are a great many of some issues of old coins. It is not the age so much as the limited issue that gives the value.
