HANNIBAL, MO. -- You could have the chance to turn your pocket change into money that folds this week in Hannibal.
The International Coin Collectors Association is set up at the Quality Inn and Suites through Saturday.
Buyers are on hand looking for loose gold and coins.
Gold is at an all time high, and certain coins are made of a lot of silver.
ICA Manager Paul Draper says, "Those are your Kennedy 1964s. They are 90% silver. Your Franklin half dollars. Your Standing Liberty half dollars. They are 90% and silver is at an all time high right now."
There are some key dates to look for on coins.
That is 1964 and before, and that includes quarters and dimes.
We're told the other day, someone got $150 for two quarters.
You can visit the International Coin Collectors Association show Thursday and Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., and on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
