edgman Valued Member United States 402 Posts	Posted 10/11/2012 8:18 pm wulffy11 Im with you as long as they are still red. Goes into the jar with the others. Some of these coins are 50 years old now so they deserve a little respect along with the wheaties. Just my thoughts edgman Report this Post to the Staff
ninamason Pillar of the Community United States 1227 Posts	Posted 10/11/2012 10:03 pm I enjoy them when they look like they could've been minted last year--not necessarily MS, but still bright and shiny and uncleaned. Picked one up this week from the 60s out of my till--pretty! Report this Post to the Staff
