This 1959 Denver minted Cent is worth exactly that...... One Cent.
Even in uncirculated condition.
But, as noted, this will be a great start to a Set you could begin building from circulation.
And 1959 is the perfect place/year to start this Set !
It's the first year of the Lincoln Memorial cent.
You should go down to your nearest bookstore and go to the "coin section". (have an employee point you in the right direction) All bookstores will have them. In this section are coin folders & albums for EVERY denomination of coin that exists, just about !
Cents, Nickels, Dimes, Quarters, Kennedy halves, Native Dollars (Sacagawea's), Presidential dollars.
They'll have folders and albums for ALL OF THESE.
You can also get older Classic albums here for Morgan silver dollars, Buffalo nickels, Mercury dimes, Wheat Cents, Ike dollars, Peace dollars.
You can also pick up the 2012 RedBook of U.S. coins too, this is every coin collectors "bible".
All kinds of good information in there......
But just starting cheaply and easily with the first coin you found, you should buy the Lincoln Cent album that starts in 1959 to present date, and begin filling those holes ! It's so much fun ! You'll get addicted so quickly.
