I'm working on $50 in pennies for The Cent Project- I had mine shipped from California, because I'm having an almost impossible task of getting circulated pennies from the Shreveport, LA area- all are BU 2007D! Lately, 9 out of every 10 pennies I get from change have been 2007D, so they are really flooding this area with those coins. Anyhow, in my $50 I found a lot of S mint marked 68-74, 12 wheats (42S being the oldest) and an amazing 1907 VG Indian cent. The data are really fascinating- for example, I got 12 69S but not a single 69 P. I am a gung-ho supported of The Cent Project. This is a really awesome idea and I hope some of you volunteer, as they still need them. Go to thecentproject.com |

Whatever "S" mints Amac44 does not take, I will. Also any pre 1930 wheats. Are you willing to sell/trade that toned 70S ?
Email me with prices.
Thanks.

Just being nosey but where did you acquire your coins? How many are you going through? You make it sound like a monumental task. Must be lots of them. If you Have thousands of them you may want to use the https://www.coppercoins.com web site for massive varieties. So what are you plans with all the ones you don't want? To a bank? Oh by the way if you run into any large cents mixed in, would you let me know?  Usually not easy to spot though. |

For the first time in many years, I have decided to work on my Lincolns. I probably started the set back in the 1950's, but haven't done much with it except add the new coins each year.
If I find I am missing something you might provide, I'll let you know.
Very nice of you to offer.

About a year ago my Mom gave me my dads small coin collection most of which he inherited from my grandfather. After researching a little I decidede to get a little more serious about collecting. Now I have always saved wheats and very rarely spent my pocket change just rolled it up until I had enought to make it worth my while and took it to the bank. Although I had started collecting the State Quarters when they first came out the folder I bought did'nt even have slots for separate mint marks, I have since expanded on that. But I decided to start with moderns and work from there. I bought the whitman folders for lincolns, Jeffersons, Roosevelts post 65 and washingtons post 65. I was actually pretty surprised at how well I did from the rolled change and the bucket of wheaties that I had on hand. But to make a long story short here is my list of lincolns that I still need. for the 09-40 book too many to list probably 75% of the book 41 d,s 42 d,s 43 d,s 45 d,s 46 s 47 s 48 d,s 49 s 52 s53 s 54 s 55 s 69 s 70 s 73 s 74 s 82 d zinc small date I even bought $10.00 worth of pennies at the bank last week in an effort to fill book 3 but I can't seem to find that 82 zinc small date. |

On these newer pennies 59 -98 I have more trouble finding the 71S .I have 10 full sets,but that 71s gives me fits.They made over 528 million of them.I have plenty of the 68-69-70-72-73-74's and they made fewer these yrs .
