Namssob New Member United States 40 Posts	Posted 04/25/2016 6:06 pm So I just finished going through a couple rolls of original 1984 Lincoln cents (I had them stashed away from when I was a kid). Of course no DDO's at all. My question - a few of these are MS65+, the rest in the 61-64 range, with a lot of spotting. Any reason to keep? I've kept the best for my own collection.

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 04/25/2016 6:14 pm I would keep the higher grades with "no" spots and put them in 2x2's. I see a lot of them CRHing and 99% have at least one spot on them. John1 Edited by John1 04/26/2016 05:11 am Report this Post to the Staff

Namssob New Member United States 40 Posts	Posted 04/26/2016 10:23 am Yeah eaglefoot, I think about that often! When I found the 1984 rolls, I thought to myself, "wouldn't it be cool if the 1984's were ALL the doubled ears?" I wanted to believe it so badly - but nope. lol! I did find one strange ear that was different from all the rest, I plan to post pics of that later. Report this Post to the Staff

cladking Pillar of the Community United States 2273 Posts	Posted 04/26/2016 9:35 pm This roll is a much better date. I'd keep everything that isn't spotted and ugly. From the picture it looks like an exceptionally good roll. Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps. Report this Post to the Staff
