Sorry. Guess I got to excited. What do you think of the 1943 s, does it look like a double to you?

Not all the coins you oasted are front to back so not sure exactly what I'm looking at. It looks like you found some good condition wheat cents which I imagine is always a good.
Your best to post 1 coin per thread and front to back. All the photos are kind of miss matched.

Note all the areas he is showing is towards the rim direction. It is just die wear. Not a plus for these coins. They are just aging die issues. (so much for the luck theory)

The '43-S appears to be a later die state and has a filled R in LIBERTY which is kinda cool. to the CCF! |

The 43 is DDD=die deterioration doubling. Also has a broken post on the R in LIBERTY.No added value though. John1  |

Try posting one coin at a time. Start with your most impressive coins and use the grading forum. More than likely you have some small premium coins based on condition alone.
Your eye is better than mine as you hold it. Consider the condition, identify anomalies, check key dates and hope for the best and be prepared to be disappointed many times.
Any cent worth 5 or ten times it's value is a winner for m e. And you never know what you might come across.

That's a very good box! A handful of unc wheaties, let alone the steel cent! I believe the steelie has been replated. Suffering from bust half fever.

Nice collection of coins you found Quote:
-weigh the 1983 Why weigh the 83? it will be around 2.5 grams. Now if it were an 82 - I would weigh that to see if is is zinc or copper. |

Yes. there were a few made on bronze (copper alloy) planchet, but it is extremely rare to find.
