  1. Hey stick around there are guys here that have been doing this for over 50 years. they can tell ya in a second what you have and if it is worth anything.. heck and if your lucky enough they will even rib you about it, But dont worry everyone here has gotten the ribbing once or twice..
  2. If you like i can send you about 2 to 3 thousand of these wheats just to get them off my hands. There are really only a handful of Lincoln Cents that are worth the time and these are one of them. sorry just a few old wore out cents.
  3. yes sir @J P M is cor4rect that is done by the crimper on a rolling machine. nothing special. Just a hint of advice please dont learn your collecting habit from YouTube. there are a lot of junk collectors out there that are trying to hock to the unsuspecting and new collector.
  4. What yuo are looking at is circulation wear. she has been running around this world for over 60 years now and well she has lost a little of her design elements. sorry just an old worn out cent.
  5. i wouldn't waste my money on these. most are in circulated condition i would move them to a better album and enjoy them just as they are.
  6. Please stay off of Y TUBE it will destroy your collecting ability
  7. 25 cents but with this Bidenomics its about 12 now
  8. well NMM is supposed to be reserved for those coins that were supposed to have a mint mark on them not for coins that were not supposed to have it on there.. any coin before i think '79 will not have a mint mark on it if it was from the Philly mint. unless it is a war nickel form 42-45. This coin is far from making a step designation. IMO it barley makes UNC. conditions. sorry
  9. I cant find it in my heart to hire anyone under 35. I just don't get any work out of them. I hired this one guy and took him out to one of my jobsite. I showed him around and then i told him i need you to pull six cables from this rack over tot he patch panel.... all of the while he was playing on his "stupid" phone. i came back four hours latera and the job still wasn't completed... i just told him not to worry about it i will do it....... I wonder if he understood that when i was doing it that i didn't need him and if he wondered why he didn't work here anymore??
  10. Andy Skrabalak Woodbridge Va. 703-580-6969 one of the best with small denominations. Cents. nickels, 2 cent , 3 cent, dimes, and quarters
  11. there isnt any doubling on these pictures. i am not sure what you are seeing. this is a normal cent.
  12. yes please spend them......
  13. by the way these things do not work on a flip phone and i refuse to get an I Phone r equivalent. I work on computers all day and the last thing i want to do when i am done for the day is to bury my head in a !@#$$ STUPID phone!!! I refuse to call them smart phone because they are making people stupid!! AND by the way what ever happened to "THIS NOTE IS GOOD FOR ALL DEBTS, PUBLIC AND PRIVATE I prevent theft by not giving a .........My Credit Card! that is how i have never had my identity stolen it stays at home until i need it for sure.
  14. yes is she is a nice one. I only got one at the FUN show a 38 FS
  15. So I decided to get over to the Summer UN show in Orlando this weekend to pick up a couple of "I HAVE TO HAVE ITS" gassed up the car for the trip over it is about 65 or so miles from the coast to the convention center. Mostly highway miles on I-95 to the 528 which is a toll road ( about $8.00 one way). and when i get there i pull up to the parking attendant with my twenty dollar bill out and here is the exchange. not sure if it was English but: attendant "no cash. sign" JT "what sign" Attendant "no cash card only sign" JT " I did not bring a card these people prefer cash want cash" Attendant "no Cash" JT " so how do you get to park if you do not have a card?" Attendant "sign" JT " I can see the sign it is behind me-- Now i can go back becaue there are 4 people behind me" attendant "no cash" JT "What do you do for people that do not have a card??" Attendant "No cash --sign" JT-- "Well how the F do i get out of here now that there are 5 cars behind me?" attendant "turn around" JT-- "ARE YOU AN insufficiently_thoughtful_person" look behind me!! attendant "No cash sign" wow what a fiasco. so i went across the street and parked at a hotel for $20, walk inside with my wife. Jt - "Honey would you like a coke zero" Wife -"Sure" Walk over to the concession counter had my twenty out JT- "Can i get 2 Coke Zeros" Att- "No Cash" JT- " NEVER MIND!!!" and walks away with all that being said it was a really good show. i picked up $1.64 in change and had a great time browsing
  16. yeah the finster is correct if you can't find it at wizard they probably dont make it.!
  17. those bullion coins that have been painted are considered damaged by collectors. with that being said there is a market for them and are collected. if you like it that is all that matters. some of the modern mints have started to produce colorized coins however i do not think that the Chinese new year coins in 2012 were releases as colorized coins.
  18. reminds me of what W.C. Fields said "there is a sucker born every minute" or was that VKURTB so you need to educate yourself on the series you are concentrating on learn about before you ever pull the trigger on the coin you want.
  19. Thanks for reminding me to pick up a new Dansco shield cent album at the FUN show this weekend. i havent had the time to assemble these one yet.
  20. Is now a good time to promote my new sticker-ing collection? Just send me $29.95 and i will send back a couple of sheets of stickers. I have an assortment of colors of your choosing. green, gold, blue for those with toning, red for those cleaned one!! If you act now i will throw in an additional sheet at no extra cost. just add an extra $199.00 for shipping and handling!!!
  21. yes what the @Fenntucky Mike says is correct.. It would grade details with all of the nicks and rim damage. it is worth a little over $200.
  22. hooah @xinfantry the @Coinbuf is correct yo find the wheel marks you need to tilt the coin at an angle to the light so that you start to see where the dullness from the rub is. and like they say you can either crack it out and resubmit or leave it in the holder and go for a reconsideration.
