There seems to be an ongoing interest in BIE cents. I have 20 of these 1955-1958 to give away in part-red AU for just a First Class stamp. My choice of dates, you will not be disappointed. PM me if interested.

Just trying to find a good home for them. Always happy to help Lincoln cent collectors if I can.

I actually have a few, not in that condition of course. Can you by chance save one for me once I return back to the United States in...about three weeks? I, of course, go through with our plan and all, with the pre-1940 cents.

Groan - Have to cancel this for the time being. Our 2-year old granddaughter got into my office, found the coins on my desk, dumped them into an open tub of some 2,000 AU wheats, and started digging in them sandbox-style.  Sigh. If you have already sent a stamp, PM me and I'll figure out something better for you or return your stamp, your choice. How could you get angry with this?

Well she thought the coins should be with the rest and she put them back.  No problem just take your time and sort them out again.  My grandkids are all teenagers now so I don't have too worry about that.

She was literally like Scrooge McDuck in the Money Bin. I guess we all like shiny things.

Reminds me of my granddaughter...I blinked and like magic my kids instantly grew up. So I am now on grandchildren. Enjoy every precious moment with that little sweety!

That's so funny. What does BIE stand for?

Frustrating, but like you said, how could you get angry with a face like that.

"What does BIE stand for?"
It does not stand for anything. It is shorthand to describe the "OOPS' of making coins during the mid fifties. THE RESULT LOOKS LIKE "BIE" ON THE COIN.
(LIBIERTY)
1957 was a BAD/GOOD year for these - I found many back in the day.
ARE THESE COLLECTIBLE?
If you can afford to put away one cent then the answer is ""YES".
Are they worth anything?
No, and they will never be so. Except one cent.
Brother, can you spare a "BARBER" dime?
