Maybe when I go to Vermont I will give them directly to Maddi the youngest she has allot more sense then the oldest. A few guys and a girl with a new car was not what I expected but a gift is a gift and I honor that thank you. I don't think I will ever sell the nice ones unless they turn brown then I am not partial and not for cheap either those are rare.

Another heart breaker but I should have guessed they would lose interest! My niece banded together with all my relatives that I gave copper satin cent 2009 sets to and they sold them rather then taking my advice and passing them down generations till they were genuine antiques and then letting family sell them you know like investing in the future of America. Instead she sold them for 14.99 plus shipping and they bought cars. What a shame about 3600 coins lost to time. The worst part is my sister messaged me live to say thank you you didn't have to do that for my girls but she she said we honestly have had enough of running to the post office and she sent about 50 setts back to me instead of giving them to her youngest that I gave proof setts of the same year to because she was born that year and she actually has an interest in coins she was wining man what a shame.

Well good Luck buying key dates and rare specimens then. Here's a few old sales tracked that might spike more interest on the topic.

This coin was a waist of money pictures are deceiving it appears to be a shinny bright coin but is brown with luster Yuck! I like my cleaned raw coin much better shiny and nice and my corroded coins much better they have Character this one just looks ugly I added it to the registry but it's an embarrassment for such a high price. The only part that shines is the eagle the rest of the coin looks flat brown like a coffee stain so disappointing. Maybe in 25 years I will get what I paid for it or maybe I will get lucky and it will turn Patina green.

I have 1975's floating head variety unc obverse au reverse coins in the garage I saved them from rolls from one box but they have no value or information on them at Lincoln cent source or any other website I have checked. I've had luck with 1982 copper small dates. I accidently knocked the box of 1950-1958 uncirculated wheat cents and had to case about 3 pages of uncirculated wheat cents yesterday. Now those are value less because they have no errors. What years are the floating roofs?

Oh so true! And thank you. One weights 5.02grams the other weights 4.95grams their regular nickels the corrosion just makes them look copper I guess I just thought they were coated.

I think these are plated guys I don't think they are real but both found in a nickel roll.

Or not was a typo don't know how that got in their it would be best to own a 1922 proof like on pawn stars buy yours looks nice I like it any way.

I would definitely like to own one of those cull or not that's Cool!

May be the 2 1982's but those copper nickels are one cull one copper coated keeper I think or should I say Me thinks?

I have only been through one of 24 unc rolls of 1982 copper small dates not change or coin roll hunt but fun looking and the first for images show what I have found so far the rest were culls. The last image is what grade I'm looking for.

darn I just nocked over a box of unc wheat penny rolls now I got to get gloves and start casing good Luck Out There Happy Roll Hunting

Man Bravo to the Silver Hounds I got to Get me some Quarters to search! Here's all I found 2 copper nickels searching bags of all change.

Pardon me, I deleted this post because Sandon the author of this chat asked me to delete it. Thanks for the help Sandon.

I assume I should label this coin extra fine corrosion details damaged! I Love this one!

Ok didn't know that thanks VKurtB. I guess I should call it a well struck minimal wear reverse.

On 1982 copper cents maybe not full steps on reverse due to pore strike.

This is what I mean by full steps on the reverse.

I am most Grateful for your response Sandon thank you very much for your help. I will label it AU details to be on the safe side. Funny I didn't notice the scratch on the face. I have noticed a few red coins of this same variety with weak stars selling for about the same price give or take 20 dollars far higher then red book value. I never bid on the ones lacking stars regardless of how red and bright a coin is. I shoot for full stars but side with what I can afford.

Ask the bank for old rolls of dollars they don't always have them but sometimes they do. A bar tender friend of mine found a 1957 silver quarter yesterday in his tip jar. Any new rare coin finds post them here for comments.

Today was a really good day I was watching my last few auctions close on ebay and I was nervous because I really wanted this 1856 Large Cent it was just my style it had full stars one slightly damaged but fair enough because I cant afford $75,000 to buy a proof of the coin. The coin was being advertised from May 1989 from the Robert E Mathews Collection. I believe the coin is an N-16 slanting or Italic 5 variety which the red book deluxe edition only mentions slightly. I read that their were only 100 proofs and that specimens with sharp stars are in the minority so I bid $400 and I got it for $189.00. I would love to here what you have to say about this coin? My estimate while using the grading pictures and reading the text is that this coin is an au50 what does everybody think? I know I can't give extra points because of the stars because the grading guide says stars don't count in overall Grading but I really like a coin with full stars. What do you all think of this coin?

Good idea because UNC 1982 d cents at least the large dates come up in change sometimes and the proofs are able to be obtained pretty cheaply. Why don't you just get a proof set start from their and coin hunt trade and buy the ones closest to Ms 70!
