We have been looking for the 'large date' ten cents for years...  If you find one in fair condition you could probably get $5,000 or so.  |

There are less than 20 known, if I remember correctly. Quote:
looking for that needle in a haystack More like looking for a piece of hay in a needlestack after the RCM started ARP. Everything I come across is plated. |

for some reason I feel that I have seen one in my collection, but I cant seem to find it. not that my collection isn't all over the house instead of organized in one place or something. I dont know maybe it was a 68 I saw. needles in a haystack? I just found my first "semi rare" 2006p magnetic after going through I believe $1500 in cents. what are the odds a no mag are in there?
BTW good luck with the other spending... lolol

sorry coingringo, as I was going to say @ M_d_in_guy, metal detecting is your best bet, because anyone who knows the worth of a lg has brought it forward, anyone else has spend their 69s to have the arp gobble them up, or... they have been dropped in the sand.

I read somewhere why there are very few may have been here , sorry I can't recall but I know it was definitive enough to have me stop looking. Could be found in sets only and or a mule, finding one in circulation is like finding a particular piece of hay in a hay stack.

Actually all of pieces that exist are lower end circulated examples .The coin is a legit issue albeit a rare one!
